| Hey all.
I've never grown dahlias before, and I bought a plant last. It grew and flourished in a large pot, then died back as I expected it would. I decided to leave the tuber in the pot over the winter since cold isn't a problem (I'm in Sunnyvale, CA), but I left the pot out in the rain all winter. The drainage is excellent, so I thought that would be ok. My question is, if it does come back, when do you think that will happen here in the south bay? How long should I give it this spring before I assume it has rotted and replant? |

| Because every mico-climate is different and every pot is different, you need to dig it out and look at it... that is the only way to tell. It is also a good time to divide your clump if it has made it. It won't hurt anything if it is alive and growing, just be gently. : ) Keriann~ |
