You are the first person I've seen to say start from seed! I am the kind of person who hates for ppl to tell me not to try something because they failed at it. It's refreshing to see someone who had some failures and didn't quit, thank you for sharing your experience, and thank you for not quitting!

man I just started working on my tubers and I for the life of me can not find the eyes. 😮‍💨 Granted this is my first time ever doing this.

Last year I saw another RUclipsr who left them in the ground and I did that, and they came back up. I’m in zone 5B. You’re supposed to cut the dolly down to the ground and let them sit for bit and cover the stem with some plastic so that no water can get in and then cover it with lots of leaves and mulch and mound it up and that worked well. I am still having Dalia flower growing, so I will repeat that process again.

Oh no there does not need to be an eye on the tuber when digging for storage. And those are not eyes, they are probably lenticles. Also, why are you cutting off all those viable tubers? Looked like you were getting rid of lots of viable ones.

❤❤❤❤

Beautiful Dahlia's

Zone 5a. Wrapped in saran wrap. Stored in cellar. Third year with minimal loss years previous. Hope you have success.😊

thanks for sharing. love dahlias. have a great week!!!

Hey Steph! Do you have room in the fridge I see behind you in the basement? I had good results storing in my garage fridge set at 45F 💌🌻

I think I’m investing in a mini fridge since I don’t have a garage!

Excelente video

I too am tuber storage challenged. Was going to try storing as clumps in my unheated& unattached garage (6b) this year. Now hearing that didn’t work for you I’m back to the drawing board. Maybe the eyes will be easier to spot this year so I can at least divide them.

Where is your green house from? If you don’t mind me asking. Thank you!

Can’t wait to see your spring tulips! 🌷 I went cheap and bought Menards tulips. We’ll see what happens! I just watched a video about a woman in 6a who overwinters her lisianthus in the ground. I’m going to give it a try. Just covering with leaves 🍁 Also gonna try harvesting lissie seeds. Love to experiment 🔬 Enjoy the Fall!

I’m so glad I recently found your channel. I am in the same zone as you! I grew zinnias this year and now I’m flower obsessed!

Digging up dahllias... extreme swollen lenticels... while plant was growing leafs wilted in sun, recovered in shade, but would seem tuber was getting too much water... contradiction? what should I do?

Wow love the slawa, negrita double mango charm ! 🩷🌷🍁🍂

Do you find ranunculus or anemones have longer vase life? Love the tips and video clips of the blooming flowers!!

You are all dollled up. Planning to keep things simple is such a good idea. (Coming from a mom of four ;-) )

I need Daffodil bulbs. is now the correct time to plant them?

Great job and varieties that you've selected! I'd like to do this next year. Can you provide the dimensions for your raised beds?

😊❤❤❤🥰🙏🙏🙏

Great video! Cutting back is a wonderful idea. Momma of 3 beautiful children!

Flower Hat sale starts 10/14 at 10am MDTV and he shows he’ll have Chamallow!

I don't do Tulips. They don't last for me in northcentral Indiana. The ranunculus and anemone were not good last year, but i believe it was me. I do well with daffodils. So, I put in 3800 more this year. They naturalized well for me. Your videos are appreciated. Stay well and remain positive.

I was so excited to to purchase from the Flowerfarm in person at the annual “Silobration” in Waco! If you would have posted this yesterday… I would have purchased your favs for ya!!!! She had so many options! All color is beautiful so I’m sure your garden will look spectacular!

Tulip mix is very pretty. Do you have to re-plant your landscape tulips each year? They don't come back?

That “ hey girl” at the end cracked me up! Love your dahlias and the precious pics of your twins❤❤

wow , What a beautiful garden, I love the garden very much. Your garden looks great and can talk to you a bit about what you can advise.

I feel you so hard on this, several of my dahlias are just now starting to bloom! But I had about 30 tubers and that number rapidly went down to about 8. Rot and crown gal killed most of mine 😞I am going to try and store mind like Erin suggests in her all about dahlia's book.

My favorite video of yours! Wow, beautiful 2024 Dahlia haul amazing 🎉

Last year I tried the peatmoss method which didn't workout for me. Too dry. This year I'm trying the saran wrap method. Bonny

I'm trying this year (in Australia) storing pretty much separately in open cardboard cartons in the shed. Some totally uncovered & some with a very light sprinkling of shavings. So far, so good. Mind you, l only lifted the ones l was shifting so not so many to store. About another month until l plant them. Last year, l stored mine like yours....ie a few in one box, covered with heaps of shavings exactly like yours & l had the same problem. Some were OK, but some were rotted & damp like yours. I think that maybe they need more air flow, because if there is any residual dampness, it's going to spread through the shavings & then rot whatever is in there. The rest of mine l left in the ground. Most have survived in ground in previous years. I just found it so much ridiculous work lifting, cleaning & storing, especially since l have heaps of single bedding dahlias, which just keep on keeping on.

❤❤❤❤

Wooo muy bien

Love love love your dahlias! I stored my tuber in cedar shavings in a plastic zip gallon size bag. It stayed in my non heated sump pump room in my basement. Zone 5b-Chicago surburb. The other tubers overwintered outside and survived! 😊

I don't have Bone meal. Can i use Biotone starter instead?

My second year with dahlias here in 9b SoCal. They survived weeks of 100+ temps. The stand outs were Thomas Edison. Cornel. Wizard of Oz. Kelvin Floodlight. Linda’s Baby. Arabian Night. I’m going to leave them in the raised bed with mulch and a tarp. I placed last years in zip lok bags with vermiculite. They shriveled up with no survivors. Hoping for better success this year. Great video. Your twins are precious.

All so beautiful. Some years I have success saving tubers, some I don't. Tried many different methods and for me each year is different. Good luck for this year and hope you can save your tubers.

I have done both peat moss and animal bedding (shavings). Both worked the same. I use cardboard box (large) and plastic totes - piece of loose cardboard on top - not plastic tight lid. Boxes are stored in basement utility area. I never get rot but have had a few shrivel. I have a portable dehumidifier in basement in connected room. Zone 7. I usually dry them stem down to stop water in stem from draining into tubers. Neighbor left hers in pot in basement in soil and that worked too. Yours did well this year. I've heard others mention it was a difficult year for dahlias. It was too hot in z7. I'm impressed w your lisianthus - stunning. Good job!

Oh, your Queens! Stunning! Wish I was there. The harvest is the most fun!

Hi Stef. Great pivot! Last year was my first attempt at storing tubers. My Amish neighbors told me to keep a lot of the dirt on the clump and place in a brown grocery bag and then place the bags in banana boxes. I stored them in my 1837 dirt floor basement. I put plastic under the boxes to keep excess moisture from wicking up in the boxes. I also put some clumps with the dirt last on them in plastic grocery bags and loosely tied them and then put those in paper bags inside boxes. They all did great. No need for vermiculite or shavings. The dirt left on them seems to insulate them. Who knows I could do the same method this year and have terrible results but I trust those sweet Amish ladies with beautiful gardens.

Thanks for the update! Beautiful dahlias 💐 I’m wondering how much light your “good” dahlias bed gets vs the less good one? And on the less light bed, do you still get flowers?

I love your smiley, cheery attitude. Good luck with the new channel.
