Cultivars & Quantities

Each listing is for 1 tuber. 

Tubers are not pretty!  Some long, short, pudgy, skinny, wrinkles, root hairs, peeling, lenticel traces, cut off ends, smooth, twisted due to other tuber growth so close by, a bit squishy, firm, etc.  We handle every tuber with care.  Most will have a sulfur paste covering any cut areas to decrease any chance of rot in storage.  Traces of dirt may also be on the surface of the tubers - you will find this may accentuate the look of tuber skin texture.

All of these things are quite normal.  If you ask 10 people how they plant, grow, divide, and store dahlia tubers, you will get 50 different answers.  In our experience, we successfully plant, grown, divide, and store dahlias and will provide you with product that are normal, and we'd plant ourselves.  If you have a vision of what a tuber should look like in order to grow and does not contain any of the realities above, don't purchase from us.
