One question I get all the time is- what do we do with our dahlias until we can safely plant them? As many of you are aware, we don't plant until labour weekend due to frost, rain and unexpected cold nights and hail, all which can kill early sprouting tubers. This leaves us with a problem since we often have around two or three months between buying and planting and you cant leave the tubers bagged or they either rot or dry out. For those who want to know what to do between receiving dahlias and planting out, here’s what I usually do- the "On a budget" version. they get labeled- waterproof marker on the tuber as well as on a tag- and potted in boxes and trays of potting mix somewhere airy and dry
