Dahlias are the queens of the summer garden: so productive, so many different forms, so much delight! Learn what they need to do their best in our climate.

In this workshop, get in the ground and dig whole clumps of tubers, wash them off, practice dividing, and learn how we store our tubers for 80-90% survival.

Digging, dividing, and storing your dahlia tubers is the most crucial task to get right for increasing your stock, keeping your plants healthy, and saving money on expensive tubers!

2. How to wash your tuber clumps easily

3. How to identify and divide viable tubers
