LAST CHANCE SALE!- $4/each or 3 for $10. All available dahlias are potted up and in our driveway. Message me on Facebook or email mary@marysgardengrows.com for address. Varieties below are available as of July 5th, 2023. First come, first serve. No holds. THANK YOU!

Extra dahlia tubers for sale! All tubers are $5/each unless otherwise noted below. Local pick-up in Ashland, WI only – I am not shipping at this time. Message me on Facebook or email mary@marysgardengrows.com. Payment by Venmo or Cash.
Tubers have been placed in baggies of soil to “wake-up” early due to our short growing season. All tubers have sprouts and/or visible eyes and are from healthy stock to the best of my knowledge.

All sales are final so please take care to not plant your tubers outside too early. In our northern Wisconsin zone 4b, dahlias usually shouldn’t be planted outside until the 1st or 2nd week of June as they do not like cold, wet soil. Waking them up early allows me to have blooms around the end of July all the way to our first frost/hard freeze. Once you receive your tubers, if it is too early to plant them outside, I’d recommend potting them up and placing them in a sunny location – either keeping them indoors or at least bringing them inside at night until the night-time temperatures are safely staying above freezing. In addition to being planted in the ground, dahlias also do well in containers. The taller varieties will need some kind of support.

Dahlias very generously create new tubers each year but here in Wisconsin, they must be dug up after a hard frost/freeze (the foliage will turn black) and stored in a location where they will not freeze but still cool enough to stay dormant. Or they can be treated as an annual if you don’t want to go through that trouble. I have tried a lot of different storage methods and would be happy to share my experience – just ask! There are also many great videos on YouTube too.

These are the varieties available as of July 5th, 2023. There are a lot of photos below so may take a bit for them to load!
