Where to buy tubers?

This year I started growing some tubers that I got from Home Depot and fell in love with them.

Where are good places to order from with more selection?

RE: Where to buy tubers?

The best place to buy tubers is from local growers. Check out any nearby Dahlia Societies, etc, as some members will sell their tubers and you get a first-hand view of what the flower is supposed to look like. Also check your local Craigslist in the spring. I've had tremendous success with tubers from local growers, versus store-bought tubers (small, puny plants, few flowers).

There are a lot of trustworthy online sources as well. Good way to expand your selection to choose from. They usually open up sales any time between now & January then ship in the Spring. Here are just a handful of the many out there:

The most complete list of dahlia vendors are on The Big List at the Colorado Dahlia Society website. Has great 'how to' articles, as well!

Here is a link that might be useful: The Big List
