How to Grow Dahlia Tubers

Dahlias are easy to grow if you give them the right conditions.In most of Canada, plant tubers outdoors after the risk of hard frost has passed and the soil has warmed.Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Plant the tubers about 4 to 6 inches deep, water them carefully as they start to grow, and support the taller types. At the end of the growing season, gardeners in colder regions can lift and store their tubers indoors for winter and replant them the following spring.
