- The dahlias have put on a gorgeous display of flowers all summer and autumn, but it's now time to lift and store them for the winter months. In this video you'll see my technique and hear lots of tips on how best to get them through their winter slumber before replanting in spring.
Do you lift or mulch your dahlias? If you have any questions, drop them below!

I love your bouquet of cafe au lait and wizard of oz.
Thank you! Very informative video. I just started growing dahlias this summer and have been wondering how to care for them over winter. You gave me great tips.
This is lovely info - thank you so much for sharing! I’m planning on growing dahlias for the first time next spring so I’m learning as much as I can before I dive in.
Excellent video Katrina 💕 thank you for sharing 👩🏻🌾
I live further down south.....in Leicestershire. The tropics.
I think this season I will have to try growing some.....think they would work well in some of my flower arrangements😊👍😘
Hmmmmmm wet sunshine love it sometimes in the winter 😘
Like before I see the video
Thanks from iraq 🇮🇶
Hi Katrina,
Will eyes develop in the spring then?
Just love seeing your garden and your joie de vivre.
I hope to get a Wizard of Oz as well as a cafe au lait. Maybe even that watermelon, too.
Wishing you the very best for the holidays. And for a very healthy and joyful new year.
Thank you vedio was very informative and helpful to save and regrow dhlias
Thank you, this was very informative. I grew my dahlias from seed and was thinking of just leaving them in the ground and mulching them over, but as I'm not far from you in the East Midlands and get the same weather, you've given me some food for thought! 💚
It’s definitely doable it’s just risky, especially if you have heavy soil. I need to move mine around anyway. I may mulch them in future years once I’m happy with their layout!
Lovely and interesting video as always... Hope to see you again....
soon... Stay safe... Sunny and warm greeting from Croatia...
Thanks for watching from Croatia! What a beautiful country. I hope to return one day.
Very nice and to the point demonstration.

Great video, am in Melbourne Australia, my Dahlias are just starting to bloom
It’s always nice to think that there’s a dahlias blooming somewhere in the world 🌸 Enjoy your summer of blooms!
Just want to wish you a Merry Christmas Katrina, I have been following you since September this year when I got my first allotment plot. Your videos are brilliant I am learning so much from you just wanted to say a Huge Thank you. I now have lots of Dahlias on my wish list this Christmas.
Nottingham is such a great city, I hope to visit again in 2021.
Just lovely. They are worth every second of all that work! ❤️
I wholeheartedly agree! ✨
Happy Holidays lovely lady with a cute smile!
Happy Holidays! Looking forward to next growing season! 💛💛💛
thanks this was a lot of good information
Very informative. Thank you
You have a great canal and a wonderful garden!
Those are huge
You will have some lovely flowers next year
Great video and tons of in-depth info! I'm hopefully going to get some Dahlias next year to add to the garden. I'll be coming back to this video because the garden here is really quite heavy and wet through the winter 👍
Excellent info ~ thanks for sharing :)
Brilliant video as always, was debating lifting or trying to mulch my Dahlias ( fell in love with them last year and planted loads this year).
I was debating if I could get them through the winter but have clay soils so now a definite to lift. Brilliant as well to store in to he trays etc rather than old compost etc which was going to be a real problem, space wise
Thanks again
p.s. bought the cc Wizard of Oz this year and it has been productive, now my favourite as well 😃
Learned something.
Good information about your storage dahliaplants in winter! By the way Katrina, I follow you everytime your garden videoclip!
New to your channel and learning alot about flowers.
Not a million miles from you. My Allotment is in Ockbrook, Derbyshire.
Dallas.
great video as usual - thanks
Thank you for creating such an excellent and informative video. Feeling like I may have made a mistake in not labelling.
Surprise plants!! 😄
Hi there, great video. I am trying your method of storing them in the garage without any medium on top. I have noticed they are starting to shrivel. Should I lightly spray them to rehydrate them? Any advice would be great. Thank you Matt.
hello and thanks a very good video so helpful im going to follow your way as im new to
I don't know whether my dahlias will survive the winter but gonna try store a few. They feel a bit soft already which isn't a good sign and maybe I'm lifting them a wee bit early. It my first year of grow them properly I have loads of tubers! There very impressive. I'm pretty bad at labelling them tho! Would love to attempt a cutting in spring of an old tuber. Cheers
Thanks for the thorough instructions! I just started growing Dahlias and am chancing leaving them in the ground...🙄
So clear, thank you this video has answered lots of questions for me. The frost was long and hard this year (followed by weeks of snow ) and some of the tubers are soft. Should I throw them? I’m going to keep them and see what happens!
nice video
Thank you Katrina. I’m so nervous about Dahlias... I purchased some in the winter and held on to them until this spring and they were totally dried out and shriveled and didn’t survive. :(. I purchased some new ones recently and planted them right away and they are sprouting. :). I love in zone 10 and not sure when or if I need to pull and store. 🤷🏻♀️
Zone 10 I don’t think you should have to worry about that
Lots of work, Great job Cheers :)
Thanks for this, not far away in Sandiacre, but no frost yet so we will enjoy for a bit longer. Looking to do more dahlias next year so interested in your cuttings comment,
Great idea, I just uprooted my first pepper plants over winter in the house😅
I'm planning to do that as well today.
@@gardentours it’s my first, I have a Cuban pepper plant so I really hope it makes it
@@TheGardenAndWormLady best of luck to your both with your peppers! 🤞🏻
@@TheGardenAndWormLady I tried it last year and it worked really well.
I brought my scotch bonnet plants indoors in Nov and they all started losing their leaves after a month😢 I had put them by my patio doors that receives enough sun throughout the day. I live in SE of England. Not sure what went wrong...and if the plants are still alive 😩
Great video! Do you find ones you have stored that have grown much larger perform much better than news ones you buy? Thanks
BLESSED I AM TO FIND YOU AGAIN !!!
Hi, this is a great video for a newbie like me. Can you please advise if the tubers have to be stored in complete darkness? also when would be the best time to replant the tubers? Thanks a million x
She mentioned replanting them in June after having repotted them earlier. FYI you asked 11 months ago
Lived the video. Is there a reason why you dont hose them down with water after pulling? To wash off the dirt i mean.
If I did that I would then have to allow them to air dry fully before storing otherwise it would encourage mould.
I may have lifted my tubers a little early, they had only a mild frost but I wanted to clear the bed they were in and mulch the remaining plants before it got to cold and wet. Anyway I did clean of most of the soil and the thought why don’t I just hose them completely clean with a fine spray on the hose gun. Now lovely and clean but is there any reason I should not have done this?
They are now in my greenhouse that has a frost heater resting upside down to dry for a couple of weeks before I put them in cardboard boxes in a a unheated shed. Fingers crossed.
I just leave mine in the ground in my garden at home, they seem to survive! I guess I'm lucky.
I don’t like to risk it 🙈 Where are you, Bristol?
@@homegrowngarden I find they flower stronger if you take spring shoot cuttings,I have left in ground over winter and they do re appear but it's nice to lift and share the roots with freinds!
@@homegrowngarden ok thanks my name srivalli country Indians state Tamil nadu language Tamil 🙏🙏myculcuture .ok Thank you
@@homegrowngarden yes Bristol, so not too cold, we only very occasionally get snow.
Does it matter how long the stems are on the dahlias once they've been lifted and ready for storage?
Mam good evening inthis year xmas design very super degradation mam try your enjoy your garden
Hi I'm new to Dahlias , purchased some to grow this year. I read you can take cuttings should I take them from New shoots this May as they grow or wait for the first years growth to pass then try?. Thanks for your advice and great video .
Thanks for sharing, i'm trying some seed next season which i have harvested from my existing plants, some dwarf mixed varieties and some very tall deep crimson ones. Have you tried crossing your varieties?
i'm wondering if you can leave them in pots if they were already in pots and just move them inside into my conservatory where its pretty cool and dry? i live in the south of england
Yes you can! I would however check to see how wet the compost is in the pot because they take a long time to dry out in winter and can easily become waterlogged. In which case they could rot the tubers. I would replace the compost in spring for some fresh stuff that’s full of the nutrients it needs. Hope this helps!
@@homegrowngarden thank you! super helpful :)
Was just wondering if grown dalihas with seeds will I get tubes if I remove them from the ground
What is the success rate storing your Dahlias without any form of coverage great video by the way.
Reg S
It all depends on your soil and how bad the winter is!
I live Manchester and have never lifted mine. They come up every year.
Ah nice! I think once I have the dahlias in a position that I’m happy with I may try it. I did loose a couple last winter when I left some of them in (along the side border) but it was a very wet winter. I don’t like to risk it 😅
I have million questions but I'll settle with just one for now. Once you lift, brush off, dry etc what do you consider too warm?
The ideal temperature range is about 5-10°C anything above that is less than ideal but might still be passable. They’re hardier than you think. Even if they get too dry and shrivel up it’s possible to rehydrate them in spring and they will grow. 👍
@@homegrowngarden fantastic! Thank you for your wisdom. My climate is much colder than where you are, I think I can avoid those temps while in storage. Cheers!
@@homegrowngarden i
mother in law used to do this. But hasn't the last few years and I am not doing them...toooo much trouble.
How does the allotment system work? Do you pay a rent for it? In my area outside of Chicago, IL I don't think we have community gardens. I'm lucky my house is on a decent size lot. Take care. I always enjoy your videos.
👍❤️😊
Thanks for the video! So much great information I can't wait to use. I didn't know about using a seaweed feed. Do you fertilize the tubers when you plant them?
Thanks for watching! No, I don’t fertilise on planting. I only begin the feeding once I see the first flower buds appear. This is usually early July. It’s also worth mentioning that I stop feeding around September to give the plants time to slow down before their dormancy.
@@homegrowngarden Thanks. Do you grow the tubers in pots before planting them, or just plop them straight in the ground
@@katemccrea6963 I plant them in pots around April and grow them on in the polytunnel until I plant out early June.
There’s a video that I made in 2019 on this here - th-cam.com/video/0JOC8vbGZNE/w-d-xo.html
@@homegrowngarden Thank you! I tried growing them for the first time and the poor things didn't do well. I'll try potting them first this time.
Hai mam very beautiful your vegetables and flower super mam which country mam sms from srivalli in india in Tamil nadu .💐👌👍 l like you
Do u know some varieties strong enough to stay in garden all winter? Thx
All what you said 👍👍the most important thing LABEL LABEL I have been growing 30years 3weeks ago I showed some seed what did I not do LABEL the pot note to self and everyone else LABELS in 2021 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We’ve all done it! 🙋🏻♀️
Hi Katrina it'is the first year that I have grown dahlia. I got them from seeds. Now where can I store the tubers?
In a cool area to overwinter in vermiculite and/or sand I believe
Great video. Where did you get these labels from? I’ve not seen them before but the look perfect for the job! Thanks
Aren’t they great? I found them on Amazon. This is what they’re called, if you give it a search - KINGLAKE 100 PCS Plant Tree Tags Thick Plastic Markers Nursery Garden Labels for Gardener (White)
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01E8K59FS?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
Thanks so much
So you don’t rince them at all, only brush everything off?
That’s right. The taps turn off at my allotment in the winter and I don’t find it necessary.
@@homegrowngarden thank you 🙏🏻
What about mice chipmunks eating your Diaz?
They look like good gloves. Where could I get a pair from ?
Those are my Gold Leaf ‘Winter Touch’ gloves. Leather with a fleece lining. Great for frosty days! 🧤
@@homegrowngarden - Thanks for that and thanks for uploading your videos...
you are pretty Guy।
What type of soil do you have?
Loam 😁🖤
You have a basement? Ooer!
Yeah, the block of flats I live in are part of a villa style victorian building that would have been one huge house in it’s day. So we have a large basement that my landlord kindly lets me use!
@@homegrowngarden lol! There was me thinking you are lady of the manor! Dahlias were the first plant I ever grew...or tried to. Pesky slugs scoffed the lot!
Mam small Request pls. Rose flower fluck your side hear put mam very beatutiful your face.👌👌💐
You need a lot of space in your basement.
Fortunately I do! My landlord lets me use it and it covers the entire block of apartments so there’s plenty of room. 😁
