Can I dig up and store the Dahliettes

15 years ago

Hi: I purchased a pretty little dahlia called Louise. My question is can I dig her up just like the large ones to store over the winter? Anything special I should know about in doing this? I've never done it before. Thanks for any info you can give me.

In the fall, if there are tubers, you can store them just like the other dahlias. No special treatment. You will probably have more plants next year as a result. I know that I did. :)
