My secret to non-stop blooms, super phosphate, Jack's fertilizer, ground eggshells, and compost. I have non-stop blooms from this method.
Hi. What kind of compost would you recommend? Thank you.
I rewatch your dahlia videos every year, I lost so many last year from a late frost and then the scorching hot summer but I’m back at it! Thank you for all of your great tips! 😍
Good video, well done. Out of probably a hundred TH-camrs and other ‘garden experts’ I’ve watched over the years, you are the first one I’ve ever heard mention to sanitize the tools!! Like nobody else ever heard of it.. It’s ideal practice when working with all plants, landscaping included. Shovels as well as the snips. Thank you!
Thanks for watching! :)
This❤
Like you, I enjoy trying to create my own new varieties by taking seeds. However I’m not keen on blooms with open centres, ie I prefer fully double varieties. I’ve found that if you leave any open centred types around, which every bee in the area will visit, then you will end up with seeds that produce open centred seedlings. So when I start the seed making process I firstly take off all the flowers of any open centred varieties, so the bees have nowhere else to go. Then I remove the petals around the middle of the blooms of fully double varieties to expose the centres where the pollen is hiding. I’ve found that seeds produced by crossing two fully double varieties are much more likely to develop into fully double seedlings. If you’re interested I’ve made quite a few TH-cam videos showing how I do it.
I buy my tubers from swan island dahlias in Oregon , and they are gorgeous !!!
Swan Island has so many varieties of beautiful dahlias!
Wow! That's a lot of Dahlia tubers! Can't wait to see how they do this year! I'm starting with 3 Dahlia tubers this year 😆 I have no idea what I'm doing so I'm watching all your Dahlia videos!
I'm very excited to start pre-sprouting the dahlia tubers. Happy gardening! 🌱🌱🌱
@@TONYAwiththeflowers Would love to see a video of you pre-sprouting Dahlia tubers!
I think I made one last season. It should be in the dahlia playlist. 🌱🌱🌱🌱
@@TONYAwiththeflowers I found it! Thanks Tonya! 😁
Wonderful, this year I fell in love with Dahlias and I am already growing Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) here in Germany which is related to Dahlias.
Your Dahlias are so beautiful
Absolutely perfect short video that covered so many questions I had, first year grower( dinner plate) 3 tubers from grocery store. Started exactly like you suggested in shallow tray from take home restaurant box , went EASY ON WATER, transplanted into window box earth box( 2) the 3rd in 5 gal plastic terra cotta look a like planter. So many blooms! Should have trellised earlier! Giving away cut ones already( July in Georgia. I’m hooked. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL! Comprehensive tutorial that could not be improved on! Thank you dear!
Looking at your beautiful dahlias thank you so much
It is the first time I have seen Such an Explanatory and informatie Vedeo for Dahlia.Thankyou for your knowledge.
Glad I found your channel. Your information is so helpful!! Your garden and pictures are beautiful!
Welcome to the channel! :) :)
I learned something new, thanks! Will have another try at dahlia cuttings.
My 1st year growing Dahlias. I was wondering when they would bloom. It’s been hot here (Georgia) so I guess that’s why they haven’t. Thank you for the video! Very informative💚🪴
Such an awesome video! I’ll be planting Dahlias for the first time this year and am grateful for this upload ☺️
Last year a big wind storm toppled most of my dahlias over☹️Have t-posts and a Florida weave in mind for this year. Fingers crossed
I've had success with t-posts and a Florida weave in the past. However, last year my twine broke during a storm and it was a DISASTER. LOL! I think this year I'm going to try horizontal trellis netting. Good luck! Thanks for watching! :)
Thanks so much for this video - I found it so helpful. I have ordered my dahlia tubers for our New Zealand spring. I could only afford a limited number (am now retired) so your advice on taking cuttings was so timely for me. Now I can increase my stock by propagating. Wonderful! Like you - I am growing a cutting garden for my own pleasure and to give away. I love your spirit and your ethos - as our Maoris would say - you have great 'Mana'. Which means a powerful spiritual force or essence. :)
Thank you so much for the kind comment! I'm so glad that it was helpful! Happy gardening! :) :)
Your dahlias are so beautiful. I live in Northern California and I plant my dahlias in pots. They’re so beautiful as well. I leave them in the pots all year long. It’s the end of March and I will get them ready by amending the soil. I just found your video and subscribed. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾. Blessings to you
I am new to planting Dahlias. I want to plant them in pots as well. When you leave them in a pot, do you have to take them out and separate the tubers? Or is that only for ground planted ones? Hope this doesn't sound like a stupid question, I'm not sure if potted ones are handled different than in the ground. Thanks!
@@lorigoodwin269
Hi Lori
I don’t take my tubers out of the pots. I live in California and our weather is warm. We don’t get a hard freeze ever. I just leave them in the pots. When they’re dormant I cover the pots with a large clear garbage bag to protect them from the winter rain. Once a month I give them a small drink of water. In the spring I uncover each pot and fertilize them and begin watering them. Blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾
Nicely done! I like how you are still showing how divide the tubers through your closing comments.
Thank you so much for watching!
I’m SO EXCITED for dahlia season!!! Dahlias are quickly becoming one of my favorite flowers to grow! ❤️
Me too! I'm really eager to try them from seed this year also!
Me too! ❤
Thank you. I'm going to try growing dahlias for the first time this year. I live in Cheney Washington .I'm so excited. Thank you for all the tips
Love all of this information. Got my first set of Dahlias this year and so excited to grow them! Thank you for the great content!
Thanks so much for watching! :)
This year I’m pre-sprouting my dahlia tubers as you demonstrate to avoid them rotting in my heavy clay soil and to reduce earwig and slug/snail pressure. Hopefully they’ll be healthier and bloom more prolifically. If you ever have a Sandia Brocade tuber for sale I’d love to buy it!
Pre-sprouting was such a big help for me. I had so many problems with rotten tubers and slugs before. I hope it works well! If I have any tubers, I'll likely post them on my website sometime in March. I still need to take them out of storage and see how well everything kept over winter. Happy gardening!
This is the second flower in 2 days that I am learning from you that you can root from cuttings this is awesome. Thank you
I love taking plant cuttings! Thanks so much for watching! :)
Hope you’re doing well and the storms have not affected you. 🙏 Please let us know you’re ok. Great video as I’m mentally shopping for Dahlias.
This is a great video that takes you through the full lifecycle of the plant. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I'm very new to this, any plants I've had in the past did not survive my black thumb. Wanting to invest in new hobbies for piece of mind and less anxiety and I think growing flowers is prefect to because seeing them blum will be inspirational and hope for new a brigher days, I looked at several channels and I decided to stick with you, your voice is very calm an relaxed and I love how you clearly explain. I love your videos, ill be tuning in . Wish me luck!
Hooray! Welcome to the channel! Happy gardening! 🌱🌱🌱
Thanks for pronouncing “Dahlia’s” like me too 👊🏽😊
Thanks for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
Haha. Americans say DAL-yah ....CDNs DOLL-yahs...Brits ...DAY-Li-as
Very beautiful flowers at the end!
Love dahlias. Best cut flower.
I love your channel. Your garden is absolutely beautiful. I've learned quite a bit watching you. I love that you keep your garden pesticides free and organic.. it's wonderful for the pollinators. Thanks so much and keep up the wonderful work 😀
Thank you so much for watching! :)
Beautiful!
Just watched your channel for the 1st time and enjoyed it I have now subscribed look forward to watching more videos from you thanks
Welcome to the channel! 🌱🌱🌱
Excellent, thank you!!!
My planting date is March 15th in the meantime I'm preparing beds, controlling snails and building a new compost pile. Currently Dahlia's are on a high shelf in front of the window in the garage sprouting. I've grown Dahlias for years but I didn't know they produced seed until last year when I discovered little black specs around my vases. With improper tubers you could sprout them, then root a cutting to produce a good plant.
That's exciting! Hopefully, I can start pre-sprouting soon. Thanks for watching!
Such Wonderful instruction about God's creation
Thank you so much for these videos. Also a KY gal growing flowers.
I love dahlia s!
Great video.
Woohoo can’t wait for dahlia season! 🌸
Me, too! 🌱🌱🌱
I love your videos! Last year was my first successful year with dahlias. Thanks for all your tips!
Hooray! I'm so glad to hear that! 🌱🌱🌱
Thank you for your knowledge. Loved the video !
thank you for this video!
My 1st time growing these exquisitely beautiful flowers! Yes I’m Somewhat scared....but what’s the worst that can happen. Thanks for this helpful information.
Terrific info♥️ I did not know about rooting cuttings. I will try that🐝this season to multiple my 🪴 plants
Thanks for watching! Good luck! :) :)
This was such a great and informative video!! Thank you so much!!!! I will definitely try your propagating tips.
Fangirl mode on. I am planting dahlias for the first year soon. I am so excited! :) I am also so exctied to see your dahlias from seeds.
That's fantastic! Good luck with your dahlias! :)
So much good information! I am growing some of your seeds this year and I'm really excited!
That's so exciting! Please do let me know how the germination rate is - I've heard that it can be sporadic. Hopefully, I'll make a video when I start mine. :) :)
Thank you so much
I'm definitely going to follow up with your other dahlia videos. Great info
Thanks for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
thanks for the info!
This is awesome and super helpful. I’m in Louisville and in the process of launching my first Dahlia garden ever. Kind of intimidating, so thank you for the great advice!
Good luck! Happy gardening!
I'm so excited about dahlias this year!!!! :D
Love your Dahlias, I’ve never tried growing any but I’m going to try, now here in SW Idaho zone 7b
Good luck! Thanks for watching! :)
Thank you for your work and teachings
Thank you for watching! :)
Very good video!
Thanks for watching! :)
Love ur channel. Thank you. Just picked up some dahlia tubers at Walmart. First to try them❤️🤞🏻😁
Fantastic! Good luck! 🌱🌱🌱
I’m thinking about over wintering one of my dahlia bushes this year. I’m in TN zone 7. We’ll see what happens!
looking forward to growing these! I love your style of videos for flowers 🥰🤩
Absolutely fantastic information thank you for doing this
I'm so excited to see how your seeds do! I've been trying to research if they will grow in zone 9b 🌵 but haven't had much luck. I think I may be out of luck with dahlias. I've been here over 20 years and have never seen a dahlia growing in the desert. Anyone out there zone 9b?
I do know we have alkali soil here with a high pH of around 8 and dahlias need 6.5 to 7. I'm wondering if I work with the soils pH, if I'm able to properly grow them here 🤔
Dahlias really seem to struggle with the heat. During the hottest parts of my summer, they won't even bloom. It isn't until cooler weather arrives that they really start to look beautiful. I think that would definitely be one of my biggest concerns in a desert climate. Thanks so much for watching! :) :)
Interesting...
@@TONYAwiththeflowers I may have to move for these beauties 😂 😍 I'm hopeful that I can figure out a way. Our winters hardly freeze so maybe if the soil is well amended and the timing is right hopefully, there's a possibility!
I’m in zone 9b, Northern CA, and I’m able to successfully grow dahlias. I have found the single varieties perform the best, as they seem to absolutely love the sun/heat here and bloom their heads off. They attract bees like mad! The dinnerplate and decorative varieties do bloom, but they are better in late September-November when the cooler weather arrives. Hope that helps.
Im new to growing Dahlias. This was very helpful. I live in zone 8a East Texas. We are frozen in this week, just hoping my dahlias that are in the ground make it.
We received a lot of snow, too. I can't wait until the weather starts to warm! 🌱🌱🌱
8a freezes!??? Oh my goodness... if tubers freeze they turn to mush .... let us know if yours made it or not!
Love it
Beautiful dahlia..👍👍👍
Thanks so much for watching! 🌱
My dahlias is a foot long now in my grow lights I started them from seeds that I bought in botanical garden, I’m hoping it will be ok when I transplanted them in the garden.
They are easy to grow I have 2 tubers from biglots and they are growing good now.I’m in zone 7a.
I still have another month before I start dahlia seeds. I'm very excited, though! :)
Don't be afraid to cut a good portion off the top once they have several sets of leaves. They don't transplant very well when they get too tall out of the ground, just because they have a tendency to break so much. They recover very well though once in the ground.
@@gardeningjunkie2267 thanks for the tips.
Thank you for the great video. I'm learning a lot from you! :) where do you get these green plant tags? I'm very impressed how you can bury them in soil and they still come up impeccable, with the writings on them. I would appreciate it. Thank you.
I found them on Amazon, though I can't remember the exact name. I also used a garden marker from Amazon. Even years later, it seems that almost nothing causes the writing to fade. Very helpful. Thanks so much for watching! 🌱
This was exactly the amount of info I was looking for and the more in depth videos are such a bonus! Thank you so so much for all this excellent, helpful info! We moved from KY/TN to TX and it's a process to relearn gardening in a new growing zone. But it seems dahlias will be extra happy here 🤠💐
Thanks so much for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
Another great video! I have some Dahlia seeds that I've winter sown. Hopefully I'll have some this year. I had a small single, daisy like Dahlia that I bought at a garden center last year, so maybe something will come from that, I doubt it, though.
I'm hoping to start winter sowing dahlia seeds next month. I'm excited to try doing so for the first time. Thanks for watching! :)
Awesome video! I love your channel
Thanks so much for watching! :)
Thanks for the info!
Wonder how many gardeners may loss theirs with this crazy winter we're having. So glad I didn't have any last yr, after this month I may think twice about leaving mine in the ground, normally I think they'd make out fine, abnormally not. Thanks again for the info.
We're getting sudden cold and snow here, too. Here's hoping all of the hardy annual seedlings will make it through!
If you mulch heavily and tarp them they might be fine
@@tracycrider7778
I'm in zone 7b, the ones that did come back last yr, were not as nice as their previous first yr. I do see growth on what was lifted, potting those soon.
Lots of info. Thanks
Thanks for watching! :)
Great video ,,do you just pinch off the tops one time
I usually only pinch one time, but I have heard that some do it twice. 🌱🌱🌱
Hello from Rhode Island! Great video! I see someone already asked but I would love to see a video on how and when you stake your dahlias? Thanks :)
I'll definitely make a video about it. I can't believe that I forgot something so important! Thanks for watching! :)

I’m so glad I found this video! I will definitely pre sprout and take cuttings.do you know a good burgundy colored one or ones to grow , I’d love to grow them for my sons wedding this fall. I used to have a floral shop and will be doing all the decor and florals! I am so excited ❤️💜thanks so much!
I usually don't grow many burgundy colored dahlias, but I do know that Swan Island Dahlias probably has a really good selection of them. 'Black Satin' dahlia is very nice, might be a good one. Thanks so much for watching! 🌱
Great video!!!
Thanks so much for watching! :)
Maybe a silly question but how do you go about sanitizing your tools between dahlia cutting? Greta growing guide, as always!
There are a few different options that people use - some clean tools with a bleach solution, some use ones that don't contain bleach. Whenever I'm working with the dahlias, I usually have a bucket with cleaning solution in it and rotate between a few different pair of clippers. It's a little bit of extra work, but I assume it is worth it in the long run to help keep the plants as healthy as possible. Thanks for watching! :)
Ahhhhh, the Dahlia Seeds...
Dahlias...
Dahlias...
Dahlias...
I've been having
The Great Dahlia Seed
Planting Debate
with myself ALL Winter!
In my mind, I go from one scenerio to the next...
A.) Should I start the seeds indoors so they will have a head start?
OR
B.) Should I just wait until the middle/end of March and direct sow them?
C.) Should I take the chance on, what SEEMS LIKE a mild Winter, will it continue?
And I should I start the seeds in a milk container outside, around mid-February?
I know people do this method in colder regions than mine!
(Zone 7b/8a Central Texas)
Altho, it STILL seems risky to me!
Mostly bcuz I've never done it.
And finally -
D.) I am strongly leaning toward the combo method of Direct Seeding, along with a cut plastic bottle over top as a mini greenhouse, AFTER my last frost date. Or maybe early, in mid-February?
This seems like the safest method!
(altho, it's the slowest...)
And so, nothing but
debate has been going on!
This debate has
created a long phase of procrastination.
Which has turned out to be LUCKY bcuz of 3 things:
1.) I don't really have any room in my tiny house for seed starting.
2.) This Ice Age weather we are now experiencing! Geez!!
I'm in Central Texas, and the entire state has been covered in snow for the past 3 days!!
(I've NEVER seen that before!)
And even a pretty good layer
of ICE 4 days before the snow!!
So, had I started them outside, they FOR SURE would be gonners at this point!!
I mean, even my established chives are not going to make it thru this one!
(I'm still crossing my fingers for my Fall planted garlic tho...)
And -
3.) Even if I had found room to start them indoors, they surely would have expired this past weekend. Our 1st power outage lasted 7 hours, and the house temperature got down to °56 degrees for most of that time. Now, on our 3rd day of rotating power outages, while we humans are fine, (and getting used to it), the house just isn't as warm as it should be for seeds.
So here I am looking for the bright side of things! (as if that sunshine bouncing off the snow isn't bright enough! 😎)
HOW do y'all snow peeps do this every year?!!!
The Great Debate continues!
I still have those Dahlia seeds in their tiny plastic packaging, awaiting my life giving decision.
They are resting quietly on my bedside table.
It's a special spot just for them!!
Bcuz this extremely cold weather has lasted soooo long, I find myself wondering just HOW LONG WILL THIS ICE AGE LAST??? I realize all y'all Northerners are rolling your eyes at me right now!
And you're right.
I'm a Winter Whoos!!!
I think Dahlia's and myself might just be made for each other tho...
We sure have a lot in common.
▪︎I'm a warm weather girl,
▪︎not HOT weather,
just warm weather.
▪︎I wither in the extreme heat.
▪︎I bloom brightest in the Spring & Fall.
▪︎I'm just not made for ice, and snow!
▪︎Sometimes my husband has to dig me out of my bed too!
Hope y'all are staying warm this week ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lots of snow here, too! 🌱🌱🌱

I did well with Dahlias this year, very happy with my blooms: Cafe au Lait, Kidds Climax, La Luna and Jennifers Wedding. I'd like to expand my Dahlia garden next season. Can you suggest a good source where you purchase tubers? Thanks!
Dahlias are so beautiful but they refuse to grow for me. Great video as always, would like to see videos on soil amending and fertilisers you use.
Thanks for watching! 🌱🌱🌱
Love ur videos xx
Do you just pinch the plant once or multiple times?
5 of my tuber has not sprout yet and it’s been a long time. I am eager to dig them out to check if all is well. I placed directly to soil without amending the soil. Disappointing so far. Out of 10 only 4 came to life . One of them from previous year which I had forgotten to dig it out is back to life.
I love Dahlias so do u recommend taking the tuber out of ground, amending the soil wit potting soil and then again back to ground . Do u think my tuber has died? I planted after frost around May . 5 weeks now
I would definitely consider carefully digging around the tubers to see what's going on. As long as the weather has been warm, most of them should have probably sprouted by now. Good luck!
how far apart in each row are your dahlia's planted and whats the distance between your rows?
Since I have a small backyard, I plant the dahlias very close together - about one foot between each plant in all directions. Thanks for watching!
Sometimes it seems like I fail at 90% of the things I try. I keep trying though.
Someone looking from the outside might think I actually know what I'm doing.
Dahlias are best grown in lines and they really need support dont they. I didnt grow mine with supports last year and the flower stems grew all crooked .
How do you stake these!
I'm sorry, Melinda. I can't believe that I overlooked something so important. This season, I'm using horizontal trellis netting. I'll definitely have to make another video showing that. Thank you for watching!
Recommended to you by "Creatively Candace" I'm wanting to grow lots of cutflowers this year- so glad she recommended me! You've got some great videos!
*It was blind! Haha!
Welcome to the channel! :)
Thank you for the information.
when dalia flowering season is over my question, is it a must to remove the bulbs and store it or can it be left in the ground
Thanks so much for watching! :)
Your dahlias are gorgeous. I remember my mother talking about her father growing "dinner plate dahlias." Is that a thing?
Yes! Dinnerplate dahlias have some of the biggest flower blooms that I've ever seen!
Loved your video! When pre-sprouting dahlias, do you recommend giving them light or keeping them in the dark? I’ve watched videos where they recommend the dark so that the tubers focus on growing roots instead of reaching for the sun but others use grow lights.
Personally, I like to pot them up in soil and give them plenty of light. I have another video that goes into more detail about it in the dahlia playlist that might be helpful. Thank you so much for watching! :)
Do you use stakes to support your dahlia, my dahlias keep
falling down on the ground.
This year, I used horizontal trellis netting and it seemed to work very well. There should be a video here on the channel. Thanks so much for watching! 🌱
Great info!
I have a couple of tubers on order and bought a packet of dahlia seeds for this summer.
Question: once I grow dahlia seeds, will they have developped a tuber by end of summer?
Can I dig those out and replant like all other tuber dahlias?
I don't have much experience with growing from seed, but everything I've read indicates that tubers will have formed. The tubers can definitely be saved and replanted. Good luck! :)
What do you use to sanitize between cuts?
What do you sanitize your tools with ... sorry for the very beginner question :))
Everyone is different. Some people use a bleach solution, others prefer dish soap and water. Lots of options online :) :)
How far apart do you plant your tubers?
I want to start a cutting garden where i don’t really need to plant ascetically. I just want to fit as many plants in as I can.
Today I bought a few bags of tubers at Costco . When I was at home I opened the bag to count (I have had load luck in the past) any how there was green mold on one of the potatoe looking thingies. I cut it off but since the tuber isn’t big to begin with I wonder if it’s worth keeping. How many of those potatoe looking things does a Dahlia need?
Dahlia tubers can vary greatly in size, depending upon the variety. Even small tubers can produce nicely-sized plants. Each dahlia tuber needs an in tact top, neck, and body. They will also need at least one growth eye on each tuber. When buying clumps, the skinny neck portion of the tuber is often damaged. If this is the case, that singular tuber won't grow. Technically, each in tact tuber can be divided and will produce a plant - but special attention has to be taken to make sure it will be viable. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for watching! :)
Can it handle the frost? Can I plant them out before the last spring frost? Thanks
No, dahlias are frost tender. I, personally, do not plant dahlia tubers when the soil or weather are cool. It always when seems that the tubers are much more likely to rot when planted under these conditions. I have a video called, 'Sprouting Dahlia Tubers,' that might be helpful. Thanks so much for watching!
@@TONYAwiththeflowers can I sprout it 2 months before the last Spring frost?
@@hungsblomsterhus399 I do ! - but I take the first and sometimes second sprouting stem for cuttings ....otherwise it gets too leggy and long without pinching back (or using for cuttings) by the time the ground has warmed up and is ready for them....
they only really need a month in a warm room with a good window / plant bulb - so you have to judge based on your indoor conditions... The first three or 4 inch stem with a set or 2 of leaves is a perfect size to make another tuber ....just cut -leaving a bit of the stem on -right where it comes out of the tuber. ...it’ll sprout again and then You can pinch that back if it gets more than 6 inches or so before planting time.
I start this early because I am in Canada with a short growing season in 4B and I just got sick of waiting till the fall for flowers!
New to growing flowers so this may be a completely stupid question but if I plant Dahlias from seed will they produce a tuber right?
Yes, dahlias from seed will also produce a tuber. Thanks so much for watching! :)
