Hi Sheelagh great to hear from you again. Have you got your plans together for this year. I've heard stories of big tuber losses with a really cold snap we had this winter, I hope yours are all in good order. Keep in touch wont you?
@MoorfieldFarmFlowers Did you lose tubers? Mine stored fine thank goodness. I have 500 more ordered from the Netherlands. Fam Flower Farm. 20 varieties. 25 of each. Mostly ball varieties. Will have to get last year's tubers started soon to make room for the next lot.
Hi Ingrid, nice to hear from you. Yes, looking forward to the new season. the pot dahlias arrived from Halls of Heddon to kick start me into action. Hope you have a great growing year, keep in touch!
I have a question and I got so many different answers. Does planting 1 tuber give you a plant with less flowers for the season than planting clump? My wife and I want a lot of flowers for next year because our little daughter wants to sell bouquets next to the road. But at the same time we want to grow our tuber numbers for more plants.
Hi Thanks for your question. Yes all other things being equal you will get more flowers from a clump, but how you prune them will have a big effect too, more pruning gives more (although smaller) flowers.
Looking forward to Dahlia starting season. So pleased to see another video from you
