Growing Dahlia Dinner Plate Cambridge

Plant tubers in spring after all danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed. Place tubers 2–4 inches deep and space them 18 inches apart in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Water deeply after planting and continue to water consistently throughout the season to support vigorous growth and flower production.

Climate and Soil Requirements

Best grown in USDA Zones 8–10. In cooler zones, treat dahlias as annuals or lift tubers in fall for winter storage. Rich, loamy, well-drained soil is essential to prevent rot and ensure strong blooming performance.

Sunlight and Watering

Provide full sun (6–8 hours daily) for the best results. Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risks.

Care and Maintenance

Pinch back early growth to encourage fuller branching and more blooms. Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering. In colder zones, dig up tubers after the first frost, dry them, and store them in a cool, dry place until replanting in spring.

Guarantee

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
