I keep getting the question is it too late to plant Dahlias? Heck, NO!
I normally plant about 500 tubers and have just started. I have planted tubers up until July 1 and they quickly catch up with anything planted previously. They love the heat, full sun, and lots of water.
Here are some of my favorites: Cornel Bronze, Peach, Cryfield Harmony (the purple one) and Brown Sugar. All of these are still available.
By the way I’m offering a free Dahlia Tuber with any purchase. So that means if you’ve been here and bought anything in 2026, you are entitled to a free Dahlia Tuber from the black crate just inside my shed.
I have an ulterior motive in the freebies and that is to get you hooked on Dahlias so that you become a tuber customer in the future.
Don’t forget about Dahlia Day here at OCF on Friday, June 5. Rain is in the forecast, but I will have everything under the upick structure and will be in the garden from 10 am to 4 pm to answer any questions you have about growing them.
