Tips & Tools for Lifting & Cleaning Dahlia Tubers

It’s time to start thinking about lifting up our tubers and getting ready for the storage season. Here are some tips and tools we use for this process.

Tuber Expectations
Tuber Expectations

Tubers can be skinny, or lumpy, or wrinkly, or blobby, or gnarled, or wizened. Just like people. And they are all good. All you need is an eye — which will become a spout — and you will get a plant that will produce blooms and more tubers.

Autumn Dahlia Care
Autumn Dahlia Care

It’s almost time to start digging the dahlia tubers. I wait until after the first frost, putting it off as long as possible. In these last few weeks of dahlia blooms, I take lots of pictures, map out my planting groups for next year, and savor the last bouquets. Because I am a gal who loves lists, here is my Autumn Dahlia Care ToDo List.

Rosy-Fingered Dawn: a Dahlia Collection
Rosy-Fingered Dawn: a Dahlia Collection

I find myself making this bouquet over and over again. I just love how the colors flow together and yet the shapes and textures are so different. I have therefore assembled them into a collection so you can shop the bouquet so-to-speak.

I get it. You order, and then later you want to order another one, but you don’t want to pay full shipping. I wouldn’t either. So this year, in your dahlia order confirmation email, you will receive a discount code for reduced shipping on your next order. This will be available up until I ship your initial order or April 15th 2024, whichever comes first.

Dahlia Identification Tags

Here is the process, if it helps you understand why I can’t ship any faster than I already am. 

Combine Shipping

So, you place your order (yay!) and then next week you get a notification that I have restocked and something on your Wishlist is now available. But . . . you don’t really want to pay full shipping to get that one more tuber, and I understand that, I wouldn’t want to either.

I have a solution for this.

Washington Dahlia Farms
Washington Dahlia Farms

Because I believe in Community, not Competition, I maintain a list of Washington Dahlia Farms. If we don’t have the tubers you want here at Flower Feather Farms: chicks & dahlias, try one of these other local farms. Support your local farmers!

Bloomquist Dahlia Tips
Bloomquist Dahlia Tips

I am so excited to share this with you. 

Paul and Barbara Bloomquist — Whatcom County Dahlia Royalty, hybridizers of 100s of show dahlias, and winners of at least a dozen dahlia show prizes — came and shared at my garden club last weekend.  Of course I took copious notes and here are all the juicy tidbits, in the order in which we need them this fall.

Our Dahlia Beds in All Their Autumn Glory
Our Dahlia Beds in All Their Autumn Glory

I think one of the reasons I enjoy growing dahlias as much as I do is that they take the sting out of the end of summer and the onset of the grey wet season. Here are our beds, rejoicing in the October sun.

Last spring my clever husband built new raised beds for the dahlias out of scrap roofing material. See the progress from spring to autumn.
