Digging and dividing dahlias is always a treat… yup!!
All of my hard work shows up “in the dirt”… we have say by at the farm …” it’s not always about what is above the ground but what is under the ground”.
Now is the time to learn about your dahlias and what they need to be successful.
Have you taken a soil sample recently? If not, learn how to do one and send the collected soil into a local agricultural lab. Not sure what that means??? DM and I can help or leave a comment below.

The things you learn about Polar Fleece and cold dry weather…. Electrostatic activity!
I’m a hum winnower removing dahlia chaff.
So silly …. And so affective

Hey dahlia lovers!!!
Now is great time to check your dahlias in storage.
You’re looking for firm tubers.
If you see condensation, mold, rot and other unusual things in your storage area, now is the time to address these issues.
I will talk more about each one of these concerns coming up. Follow along and learn more.

I can’t wait to share my Dahlia Tubers and seeds from my farm.
It all starts tomorrow.
I have been working hard to make sure things go as smoothly as possible. I’ve added loads of photos and I’ve increased the bulk variety options.
I love dahlias … truly I do. Sharing my babies with you means you get to have loads of beauty in your yard. You get to experience the joy of gorgeousness, peace and Mother Nature at her best.
Join me tomorrow as my shop opens and I bring my garden world to you!!! Your support means we both are able to increase the beauty in our world. What a wonderful gift .

Today is the last day before the dahlia tuber shop opens!!
Yipppppeeeee!!!
I started with 438 crates and now I have finished washing all the clumps I need to before my dahlia tuber shop opens on January 11th.
I will spending the week doing my final counts, analyzing the spreadsheets, checking the tubers, making sure all the containers are accounted for and doing my final projections for the 2025 growing season.
I will be making more adjustments to the website. I’m hoping everything that you “see” is completed by Tuesday night.
I will do a live video soon to answer questions and to show you my process. …. Because who doesn’t love the behind the scene details??!

Some of my favorite workhorse dahlias that are a must have for my field.
It’s always good to have dahlias that pump out the blooms all season long.
The dahlia tuber shop is opening on January 11th.
Make sure to set up an account and start making a wishlist now.

Day 28 of my 30 day challenge of dahlias I love to grow on the farm.
Oh… you’re in for a treat! Sam Hopkins is a dark red-burgundy velvety dahlia that is completely irresistible. She is my go to dark dahlia for a “larger bloom”. She is 4-5” with INCREDIBLY long stems. If you want drama, she is your girl. My list of why I grow her is a mile long and for good reason.
All I can say…. Put her on your list of must haves… you will love her.
Look at that color, those petals, those stems!!! All season long.

Come with me into “Big Bertha” and see how I’m doing dividing dahlias. I have less than 100 crates to go in Big Bertha.
I’m dividing about 15 crates a day. It’s loads of work.
Washing the clumps
Divide the clumps
Record the tubers made
Label the tubers made
Pack the tubers for winter storage
Repeat… repeat… repeat!!
I’m making progress.
