Planting and care

Plant your dahlias during the sunny days in a deeply worked soil, enriched for example with crushed horn or dehydrated blood. Place your tuber and crumble the soil well to fill without any air pockets. Your dahlia should be covered with 6 cm (2in) of soil. At the end of the planting, pour one litre of water. Water regularly during the first 6 weeks to help with rooting. Dahlias are sensitive to cold. They need to be overwintered. In November, the first frosts will blacken the foliage, that's the time to dig them up. Carefully unearth the tubers. Remove as much soil as possible. Let the foliage dry, so that the tuber can replenish its reserves. When the foliage is dry, cut the stems 10 cm (4in) from the tuber. Spread your bulbs in a box on a newspaper. Store away from frost in a dry, cool, and dark place.
