Dahlias are dug! Drying, sorting and storage ahead but Walnut season is right around the corner! This was not a big nut year for our trees but we love these ideas!

Just like that, flower season is all over. Time for the great Dahlia dig.

Late frost gave us a small second flush of listhianthus. By far my favorite flower but also the most high maintenance.

I added these stems to the fill station this morning! 10/13.

Dahlia clumps and tubers! In the stand for $3 each.

I cannot offer a guarantee on fall purchased tubers so they are deeply discounted!

It's up to you to store them properly so they are ready for spring planting.

This is just my first round of digging, I have hundreds more coming!

Storage tips!

1. Make sure they are dry before packing!
2. Keep in a cool, dark, humid place. No direct light, 40-50°, 80-90% humidity
3. Don't let your tubers: freeze, sit wet, or dry out. Check them monthly all winter. Moisten or open for airflow as needed
4. Pack properly: no one should be touching, medium should cushion while still allowing airflow. Peat moss, vermiculite, coarse shavings inside cardboard box or paper bags.

If you've seen me crawling around under the foliage of my garden it's because I did a terrible job labeling my dahlias and now, I'm panicking to identify them before the frost.

Who's looking for tubers to plant next year? Turns out I will probably have a ton of mystery deals.
