Planting and Care Guide

• Sunlight

  Dahlias prefer a sunny location with at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day, such as a south or west-facing border. They can also grow in shady areas, but they may be taller and require more staking and care.
• Soil

  Dahlias can grow in most fertile, moist, well-drained soils. Before planting, you can enrich the soil with organic matter like compost or well-rotted manure.
• Planting

  When planting tubers in the ground, dig a hole that's 4–6 inches deep and place the tuber in with the eye facing up. You can also start dahlias indoors in pots, filling them with moist, well-draining garden soil and planting one tuber per pot on its side, about 2–3 inches deep. Place the pot in a warm, sunny spot (at least 60°F) and don't water until a sprout appears above the soil.
• Staking

  If you're growing varieties that can reach heights of 3 feet or more, you should stake them at planting time. Place a strong 5–6 foot stake near the tuber and use twine to tie the stems to the stake every 12–18 inches as the plant grows.
• Watering

  Dahlias need consistent moisture, but they can tolerate some periods of dryness because their tubers store moisture. You can water dahlias deeply 1–2 inches per week, 2–3 times per week, instead of shallowly every day.
• Fertilizing

  Dahlias are hungry plants that benefit from consistent fertilizer, but the amount and frequency depends on the fertility of your soil. You can start fertilizing once the plants are 24 inches tall, using a fertilizer that's rich in nutrients and more nitrogen when they're young and less as they mature. Fish emulsion is a good early season fertilizer that you can apply once or twice a month, depending on how it's diluted. You can send a soil sample to your local extension office or a reputable soil lab to help you choose the best fertilizer for your situation
