Potting Dahlias for Early Blooms!
video description
I have been watching since your townhome days and you took my love of floral design and designing wedding arrangements to a love of all things flowers and gardening. I told my husband this year I am going to make my seed starting happen (I always fail at starting seeds) and have been STUDYING your videos. But dahlias are my first love with flowers, and Ive been so excited to invest in my first tubers this year. Thank you for your inspiration!

Also. I am officially itching to plant now! All it takes is one video about your incredible dahlia tubers and Im instantly excited to get planting! Its March in North Texas and we are going to have another deep freeze this coming Friday with a winter mix so Im reluctant to plant anything yet when normally I would have already started! So nerve racking! Lol Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you right now and for another amazing video!

Your cat is soooo adorable! You are a wealth of knowledge and I cant get enough! I am so excited for this growing season. I am in Montana and much too cold to do much as I dont have a green house. But thank you so much for all your info, keep it coming, I love it and I am taking lots of notes! Question about Dahlias and insects. I have a horrible ear wig problem with my Dahlias during the growing season. Any suggestions?

So I did this but outside zone 10b and nothing sprouted. Followed the rules and didnt water. Problem with that is we dont even get a drop of rain where we live so I thought about the pnw in the spring theres rain. So I treat them differently. I water them every other day but lightly. Our temps are ranging from 55-88 during the day. All over the place.

Our guest bedroom was full of gallery dahlia tubers last year and they took FOREVER to bud. This year, I've ordered a lot of larger varieties, and they can just wait to go out after our last hard freeze (end of April! Our growing season lasts to about the end of October, so I'll have months to enjoy them out of my brand spanking new cut flower garden!

Thanks for the clip! I have a mass of dahlia seeds to plant that i was given. We are just moving into autumn ( new zealand, wondering when i should sow them and how? Maybe like your winter water container planting idea would work? ( we dont get snow where i am, just cold rain all winter. Was wondering if i should start them now

You do such a wonderful job explaining everything we need to know to divide, overwinter, and plant our Dahlias. You make it look so easy! This will be my 1st year to do this, so I am thankful for your helpful videos. Wish me luck! I now have about 30 tubers and have no idea where I'm going to put them all! So excited, though!

Hi Laura and Aaron love your videos and look forward to them every day, I am hoping to pot some vegetables on my patio this summer, the patio isn't very big, I am concerned about putting them in plastic pots as I've heard the plastic can leech toxins in to the veg, any suggestion on a safe pot to use for this?

Curious to see if you get earlier blooms. I tried this experiment last year. Started some in March in heated greenhouse (zone 5) and others directly planted in garden 3rd week in May. The ones directly planted pretty quickly caught up to the ones started in March. Made no difference in bloom time.

I'm so excited to see how those koganes come out I bought a pack during the panini and potted them up but we ended up moving and took them with us across country but waited too long to plant them out into proper pots and I got 1 flower and it came out more yellow then pink
