Planting & Growing Guide

Dahlias thrive in full sun and well-draining soil. Plant tubers after all danger of frost has passed, 4–6" deep and spaced 12–18" apart depending on variety size. Pinch young plants at about 12" tall to encourage bushiness and more blooms. Provide sturdy support for taller stems. Water consistently, but avoid waterlogging, and deadhead regularly to extend the bloom season. In cooler regions, lift tubers after frost, cure them, and store in a cool, dry place for replanting the following year.
