Zone 5 here and can't thank you enough for this video. My garden is now bare and your video is full of life. Thank you for the valuable how-to's that will truly guide us whole year round. Thank you Crane, you're such an inspiration. You are meant to do this.
Taking a minute to appreciate the time invested in shooting and saving video all season long to make a comprehensive presentation. This is orders of magnitude better than most flower gardening videos.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I'm sure this was a major undertaking with the planning, filming, and the narrative. I watched it twice to make sure I didn't miss anything. I am in zone 7 and have been growing dahlias for several years and I have learned a few things from this video. Thanks again.
What a great video for anyone interested in growing dahlias - it has so much good information. It’s not only obvious that you love to grow them but it’s clear that you put a lot of thought and energy into producing this video. Excellent job, Crane!
I love your channel. Your dahlias are amazing and bring such joy to you and to us. You are very knowledgeable and reassuring when challenged come about. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn. Your channel came up on 20/1/25… a very difficult time for the USA, with the beginning of another administration. Concentrating on your zinnias and dahlias besides all the other flowers in you precious gardens makes me happy and gives me the confidence to start a seed garden in the basement. I believe our area is too cold and they’re lots of work for me. I suffer from nerve pain and can’t spend too much time bending and planting. I am amazed you took one year to make this video. You are incredible. And such a giving person! 🧡🌸🌟
I recently found your channel and watching your videos is getting me through this long cold winter and looking forward to spring. The dedication it takes to make a video like this is remarkable. One entire year of documenting your dahlias! I make videos too and I have a hard time just doing 20 minutes in one day! This is fantastic and you deserve all the praise for all your hard work. LOVE IT:)
Kòb khun, Crane! I loved the whole year of dahlias! I'm watching it here in zone 3-4. My garden has been completely tucked in for the winter now. We've had a little snow but it went away. We need lots of snow to protect the plants when the temperature goes down to -40° in January some years. To see you out with dahlias in November is amazing to me. Thank you for your happy self, your happy dances in the garden, and your happy music. We need some happiness now.
This is a great video. I know that I will watch this several times and take notes. It is obvious that it took a lot of time to make this video. It will help a lot of gardeners!! Thank you so much. 😊
What a thorough dahlia video Crane! I can’t thank you enough for this video. It took a lot of planning to put this together over the entire year and it is so appreciated! I learned so much! 🌸🌝🌿
Crane, you are such a darling, and your Bouquets are absolutely gorgeous. I love the variety of picking material in your garden. Thank you from New Zealand for sharing your garden.
Thanks for sharing your tips on growing dahlias. I hope to be a new dahlia mommy this summer! Wish me luck! You have a gift! Your flower arrangements, they’re absolutely beautiful!
I accidentally stumbled on your channel through your short videos and I am so happy I did ❤ I always find this time of year so difficult to get through. But your videos really inspire me to look ahead into spring time and dream about my garden 😊 Your lovely personality shines through your work. You bring such lovely and positive vibe and it’s wonderful to watch your videos. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much Crane for this wonderful, informative video. 🌻You have been a great source of encouragement to me so that I don't give up on growing dahlias. Your dahlias are truly exquisite, and appear so vibrant and healthy. It seems that you have mastered the skill of growing cut flowers, especially dahlias. You are such an an amazing florist too! The bouquets you design and make are so lovely! I have learnt so much from you, even though I live in an entirely different climate - the subtropics in QLD Australia. 🦘🦜🐨 Your entire garden is stunning, welcoming and beautiful.🌺🌿🌷
Wow! That was a huge video project!! So many will be blessed with the knowledge you so generously shared! I forwarded this to many of my flower friends. I needed the encouragement today. I am drowning in the tuber clumps that I dug up last week. I am leaving lots of dirt on them but it is taking me forever to clean up the clumps just to place into the paper bags and haul them box by box to the basement. I have about 300 huge clumps. I don’t know how these farmers with thousands of plants do it! I put compost, sheep wool, Plant tone and bonemeal in the hole before planting. Let me know if you would like me to send you a bag of sheep wool for planting next Spring. 🐑 😊
Awww… thank you so much ☺️😊❤️ I think I am good. 300 is a lot. I saw some bigger farmers use machine to dig them up. Please take care of yourself too 😊🥰❤️
How very lucky for me that you are teaching us about dahlias! I cannot leave any tubers in the ground where I live, it gets to be -40C, which is also -40F here in the winter and unless the plant is rated for Zone 3, everything else will freeze, (some Zone 4 plants may also survive)! I have a plastic container filled with wood shavings to protect my tubers, I look at them at least once a month. I got an email from Johnny's Seeds this week announcing three new zinnia varieties, so I ordered two and I also bought some giant dahlia seeds I will start in January. I am so excited! Thank you so much Crane, for this insightful video and I am so happy the tubers you left over winter survived! Cheers from Gloria who gardens in Mundare, Alberta, Canada!
You’re very welcome! 🥰✌🏻 while I am complaining it’s getting cold, I can’t imagine how it would be in Canada. One of my bucket list to visit though. Stay warm. I am buying the seeds too!!!!
What a wonderful video!!! I always wished to have videos about the different flowers, that show their cultivation through the garden year! But this type of video is so much work that I never found something like this on TH-cam. Thank you so much for spending that much time for us to produce this great source of knowledge!!! Just one thing is missing: the black furry plant ;)) 💖😻🐱Greetings from Denmark!!! 💖🤗🌻
Another fantastic video! The amount of time, effort and love that went into making this video is so cool. I got my first dahlia tubers about a week ago from Swan Island Dahlias, and I'm so excited to grow them and try out your tips. You had tons of great information in this video, it will be a greatly thorough resource for anybody that wants to grow dahlias. And what a journey it's been for you growing these beautiful flowers. Well done on the production quality of this video as well - it was beautifully filmed, the stories that you told were inspiring, you had tons of valuable information and the music was perfect. Every time I had a moment of "oh well I wonder how this would work" you would explain it right after lol.
Wow, Crane, you have out done yourself in this video, it's so thorough, so good, and, I'm absolutely sure, lots of work for you! Thank you so very much for your hard work and for sharing this incredible video. I love every minute of it!
@cranerygardens I loved your episode on Zinnia too- I grew some last year for the first time & fell in love with them. This year they were terrible- so I've had to research & look at my approach. Thank you so much- we need YOU and flowers in these times more than ever x
The most thorough dahlia video I have seen and is jam packed with helpful information. I will be rewatching next year when it’s time to wake up the dahlias. Great work!
Thanks for this video. My husband and I watched very closely what ur instructions are … 👍 love ur simplicity to store the dahlias tubers. We are going to implement ur methods. Hope that we will have some results for next year dahlias growing season. ❤ ur videos.
Thank you so much for this video Crane! I have “dabbled” in growing dahlias a few times. But now I want to get more serious about growing them as you have inspired me to start my own small scale roadside flower stand. I’m in zone 7b in Maryland so your experience and videos are very helpful. Much flower love to you! Amy
Thank you, Crane, for your extensive tutorial of dahlias .... from seed to garden to flower to tuber. I appreciate the time you took and the knowledge you shared!
crane , great detailed video on dahlias,we dont just want the pretty but the how to for sure, you work hard but i can tell you embrace and enjoy the process , not just the final results which i think is the key to a self fullfilling garden inspired life, i love that song, some kind of wonderful, can you post the singers on the channel for us, your music selection if great part of video that makes is relaxing and fun. happy fall to you and all subscribers
Wow, Crane, this video is amazing. The amount of time and work it took you to put this together really shows. You never fail to inspire me. Not only that, but I find that I now take time to look at each flower, plant, and "weed" much more closely and truly appreciate their beauty. This I learned from you. Thank you for this Master Class. I have (for the 1st time) ordered SO many Dahlias for spring delivery that I am both excited and nervous about. Sending you both much ❤ and 😊
Awww 🥰 Thank you very much for this comment 🙏🏻🥰❤️ I almost cry when finishing this video project. Getting this comment here just made my day! I know! But trust me you will always find a spot for your dahlias. 🥰❤️❤️❤️
God bless you good man, it is enjoyable to watch someone who really loves what he is doing, and that is what is inpiring and helps to learn faster! Thank you for sharing with us!
❤ An hour of Crane, just loved it! Im so excited to try Dahlias again. My first experience was poor so i didn't do it again. After watching the video, im going to try again . Thanks for an amazing tutorial!
Thank you for all the info Crane. You have a gorgeous collection of dahlias! I'm going to shop at Swan Island next year and add to my collection. I successfully grew one dahlia plant this year yay!
I love this video. Thank you for the time and effort it must of taken to make it. So much appreciated and your Dahlia's are spectacular! This will be my first year making a Dahlia garden. I have wanted to do this for years but my yard needed a lot of clean up and prep.
amazing video, Crane! Thank you for sharing 🥰 i don’t personally grow dahlias but i watched the whole video and learned a lot! you can really see all the hard work and dedication you put into this video ❤️❤️
I found you on Danielle's channel and i cant thank her enough! Im 7a as well and this is the MOST comprehensive dahlia video ive ever seen!! Question, do you find that certain dahlias overwinter better for you than other's? I have a pompon dahlia that has returned reliably for 3 years. Tried it with my dinner plates, with no luck. Thanks!!❤
Thank you very much 🙏🏻🥰❤️ Yes! Certain dahlias are doing better than the others. I find that the specialty varieties ( like dinner plate or newer varieties ) are not as strong as the boring , monotone ones.
What a wonderful video! Thank you for such an in-depth look at everything to do with dahlias. Loved seeing all of your pretty varieties. I’ve told myself I’m not ordering any new varieties for next year, but it’s very hard to resist. On another topic, have you seen the new Zinnia varieties that Johnny’s has bred? There’s one called ballerina, I think, that you might like. They have 2 others that are juicy colors, and I bought both of those along with their new celosia. And, of course I don’t need anymore seeds, either, but I couldn’t stop myself😊
Thank you 🥰❤️❤️❤️ I am trying not to buy more tubers too! But I think I will buy a few fun ones. Yes yes! I have seen Johnny’s zinnias. I am buying soon. I love Ballerina but I might buy Aurora instead. I learn this year that pastel zinnias can get to pale in summer bouquet. Thank you letting me know though. You’re the best!
Thank you sooo much for sharing.❤ Love your video and beautiful colorful bouquets. May I ask the name of the white dahlia with yellow center in 34:12 of video? Thank you ❤
Wonderful video! As usual! Would you mind sharing the song that starts at about 32 minutes when you’re starting to harvest the dahlias? I have heard it before on your channel but I don’t see a reference to it anywhere and it is such a upbeat happy song. Thank you, Crane!
Me gustaria tener un pedazo de parcela con riego pa. Tener a mis dalias tan hermosas como las tienes pese a la altitud en que vivo las conservo y son hermosas
Thank you for sharing and collecting the video whole year round. So much effort from you. 🥹 I was tried to plant Dahlias in France so many times but failed. Will try again this April. Thank you ka 🙏🇫🇷
I've only grown dahlias from seed, grew them under grow lights and put them into my raised kitchen garden bed. They did well, attracted a lot of aphids, deflecting the bugs from my tomatoes, lettuce etc. I'm still debating on buying tubers, I find them expensive and I'm not sure I can commit to taking them out of the garden at the end of the season. What are your favorite varieties as (long lasting) cut flowers? Thank you for this comprehensive video Crane! 💚
@@cranerygardens okay you’ve convinced me to try dahlia tubers next spring! I’m pre-ordering them now. You are such an inspiration and I smile every time I watch your videos Crane!! You’re so inspiring!

Thank you ❤
Thank you very much 🙏🏻🥰❤️ You’re very welcome! 🥰✌🏻 those are from seeds. No specific variety name 😊🥰❤️

Que bueno compartir a conservar las dalias son hermosas y tiene muchos beneficios para la diabetes si consumes sus tuberculos saludos desde Cusco Perú
Awesome video and I don’t have the heart to dead head so I really need to work on this 😢
Beautiful gorgeous flowers , can I grow in zone 9b it’s really hot in summer and dry?
Wonderful video! As usual! Would you mind sharing the song that starts at about 32 minutes when you’re starting to harvest the dahlias? I have heard it before on your channel but I don’t see a reference to it anywhere and it is such a upbeat happy song. Thank you, Crane!
I’m glad you enjoy. The song must be “Sunshine After Rain” by Adelyn Paik 😊🥰❤️
Yes, that is absolutely the song! It is one of those songs you hear that can definitely chase the clouds away and bring in some sunshine.❤️
Thank you for the video! Do you add any other fertilizer after planting (beside compost) them or after they grow big?
You’re very welcome! 🥰✌🏻 I use Flower Tone from Epsoma Organic. Nothing else 😊🥰❤️
Thanks!
2025 will be my first year trying this flower.l ended up buying seed and crossing my fingers for good luck 🤞
❤❤❤
Me gustaria tener un pedazo de parcela con riego pa. Tener a mis dalias tan hermosas como las tienes pese a la altitud en que vivo las conservo y son hermosas
¡Gracias! Me alegra que te inspiren mis dalias. 😊❤️
Hi Crane! Do you put your dahlias in hot water after harvesting?
Hi! I don’t do that. It’s just too much work for me. I am sure it will help but at the same time I feel like cutting it fresh is most important.
Thank you for sharing and collecting the video whole year round. So much effort from you. 🥹 I was tried to plant Dahlias in France so many times but failed. Will try again this April.
Thank you ka 🙏🇫🇷
I've only grown dahlias from seed, grew them under grow lights and put them into my raised kitchen garden bed.
They did well, attracted a lot of aphids, deflecting the bugs from my tomatoes, lettuce etc. I'm still debating on buying tubers, I find them expensive and I'm not sure I can commit to taking them out of the garden at the end of the season. What are your favorite varieties as (long lasting) cut flowers? Thank you for this comprehensive video Crane! 💚
Awww 🥰 Thank you very much 🙏🏻🥰❤️ my number 1 favorite is Jowey Winnie!!! 10 out of 10 on every check point! 🥰❤️❤️❤️
@@cranerygardens thank you Crane, I will look out for that one! ❤️💚❤️
@@cranerygardens okay you’ve convinced me to try dahlia tubers next spring! I’m pre-ordering them now. You are such an inspiration and I smile every time I watch your videos Crane!! You’re so inspiring!
Great job!
