Dahlias in containers

Hello,

This is the first time I am growing dahlias.I bought a bag of "bulbs to blooms",dutch grown dahlia bulbs in Costco.It has 5 Hawaii Dalia bulbs and 5 Yellow Eye Dahlia bulbs.I have 7 large terracota pots of 1.5 to 2.0 feet diameter and 1.5 feet tall.I would like to know how many dahlias I can plant in each pot.I am thinking about using "cactus and citrus" potting mix or regular cactus mix.I would like to know if any of these two potting mixes are ok for growing dahlias in pots.Or I would like to know if there is dahlia potting mix commercially available.I am planning to place the pots in my sunny patio without any saucers for good drainage.I appreciate your info on this subject.Thank you.Jim
