Add a ray of sunshine to your garden with these cheerful daisy-like dahlias they are very pretty and as they are small they are ideal for windowboxes or small gardens flowering from late summer to the fall.
Plant Instructions: After spring frost have disappeared soak your Dahlia tubers in a bucket of tepid water overnight to re-hydrate them before planting out in well-drained garden soil. Position the Dahlia tubers in a sheltered location or stake them for support as they grow so that the wind won't break their long stems.
Refrain from watering at planting time as spring provides sufficient rain; they are susceptible to rot from over watering. Water twice weekly in summer. Dahlia tubers bloom late summer and last until first frost.
Lift Dahlia Tuber tubers before winter sets in. Dig them out carefully with a fork, shake off excess soil and let them dry out completely. Then place them in a well-ventilated frost-free room for winter. Do not pile them on top of each other as they can rot. Replant the following spring after frost.
