When to plant dahlias
Once the risk of night frosts has passed, you can start planting dahlia tubers directly in the ground. In warmer areas, planting can be started as early as March.
Where to plant dahlias
Dahlias like well-drained soil and sunny spots or slightly sunny. The morning sun is perfect. Since these recent summers have been particularly scorching, especially the month of July, we recommend protecting dahlias with a shade cloth, if necessary.
How to stake dahlias
Large-flowered dahlias can bend under the weigh of blossoms and in case of stong winds. Use the handy natural bamboo poles.
