PLANTING NOTES

Planting season: Due to our cold winters, Dahlia tubers must be planted in early spring in Quebec. You can dig up your tubers in the fall to use them year after year following our planting guide.

Planting: Planting should be done after the risk of frost has passed. Tubers do not tolerate frost, so they must be stored indoors during the winter. Dahlias are heat-loving plants, so it is very important to place them in a sunny location and avoid overwatering. It is recommended to follow the instruction sheet included with your order.* or visit our blog page here!
