Buying dahlia tubers

16 years ago

This is the time of year our local dahlia societies sell their excess tubers; this is a club fund raiser and a great way to get named varieties you won't find in stores (at better prices). Also, there are usually club members present to answer questions and help select varieties. I don't know how you find out about dahlia societies in your area, but i guess you could google it. You might also see if someone from this site could search for varieties for you if you pay for the costs.

Happy dahlias!!

I would add, if, like me, you're in an area that doesn't have a Dahlia society, consider selling some of your prized Dahlias a local Farmer's markets and creating one...that's my plan...;-]
