Очень люблю георгины, но ни разу не выращивала в горшках. Спасибо за идею, надо попробовать. Мой любимый сорт это, конечно же, Тартан. Спасибо за такую красоту☺😊
Another really useful video thankyou Claus (& thankyou To Alexandra from ‘The Middle Sized Garden’), it’s lovely to see how you create each particular type of display, especially the colour range, so giving us info on the dahlia cultivars & some of the foliage, in this case the chartreuse & lime plus the dark purple Angelica gigas - gorgeous! . I also have your latest wonderful book ‘Containers in the Garden’, which I have read from cover to cover & spent a long time studying the pictures, too. I mark the sections I know I’m going to need again with removable tabbed labels written in pencil 😊 . Thanks a million as always! 👏🏻 Ruthie x
I live in North Lincolnshire and just wanted to say I love your videos. So informative and helpful. I don’t have a garden just a courtyard. I plant everything in pots. I love listening to your English. How clever are you.
Just to thank you for suggesting reading about Constance Spry, what a talented lady. Please show us around your green house and is it heated all winter. We live in New York State and it is very cold climate.
So beautiful and amazing that you can plant a lot of flowers and plants so beautiful, also nice blooming.I an imagine that to have a nice garden like your.Thank you so much with your sharing the nice 🙏 video 👍❤️🙏👍🌍
Thank you so much, Claus! So informative. I barely notice the supports (brilliant, incidentally) because of the beautiful flowers. Please have a spare room ready for me and my little dog...Nero needs a guest too. (oh my gosh it's paradise! is anyone else brushing up on the metric system?)
I live in US zone 8A, coastal NC. I planted my first dahlia this summer. They are just magnificent flowers but I've always shied away from them. The variety I grew did spectacularly well with really no effort! I'm going to leave mine mulched up in the ground as an experiment over winter. Hopefully they won't get too cold or too wet! Claus, you are an inspiration!!
Thank you Claus. I have contacted several dahlia growers on YT, all with different methods. One is Dahliaholic (Geoff and Heather), and Sara Craven, who doesn't lift her plants. I hope to grow some this year, but without a greenhouse, I might lose them - then buy more!
You have amazing beautiful flowers. It was a pleasure seeing them and admiring their beauty. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. Greetings from Canada💜
Thank you! I posted this morning on another of your videos asking for a video about planting dahlias in pots and was happy to find this one you created last fall.
Very informative video on your beautiful garden. So interesting to have all plants in containers. Love the mix of foliage plants amongst the flowers. Love your doggie companion.
My gosh your garden and your taste is absolutely impeccable. It's so remarkable what you've achieved growing in pots, something I've never been good at.
It’s strange but I’ve left my dahlia tubers in the ground over winter and even after very wet and also very cold winters, they’re still fine. They grow and flower well to my surprise each year!!
You are such a gift for us gardeners! Great info and such beauty to behold in your garden!! Thankyou so very much! Love your utube videos from judy in pensacola fl USA!🌺👍🥰
Thank you so much for this informative and encouraging video. This is perfect for my particular need in a area for my dahlias here in Louisville, Kentucky.
Your dahlias are so beautiful 😍. I love Dahlias. I have twelve I didn’t plant this year so I put them in my garden refrigerator. I hope they will grow next year. I was so busy planting so many things, I forgot to plant my dahlias. I’m in zone 9b Northern California. We have warm weather. I enjoy your videos and thank you for your knowledge. Blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾
What was the beginning for your idea, planting al theese wonderful dalias and shrubs in pots? Why don't you grow them in soil? Every time i learned a lot of your videos. Greetings from Germany
Hello Claus. I enjoy your videos very much. Can you please elaborate on exposure with the different varieties of your flowers and shrubs? Especially the shrubbery? I have a very shaded back yard with dappled sun in the afternoon so I’m finding it hard to determine what I can add to my garden to make an impact.
Your garden is so beautiful. I have been falling in love with Dahlia's and would like to try my hand at it. I live in Barcelona, Spain and only have a small balcony. However, I think after watching your video, I am going to try next year with one large pot.
Hello. I saw your tobacco. I think you remembered me! But I wrote about smoking tobacco. And yours is decorative. This is different. There is smoking tobacco, tall with huge lime-colored leaves. It does not winter here in Russia. Annual. Its flowers are small and white. Very modest.
Love your live for your garden so beautiful, also want to ask you I have Dahlias seeds who have sprout already well my question is that seed plant will have bulb later?
Do you only store the tubers in newspaper? What is your opinion on vermiculite? Do you divide your tubers in the fall before storing them, or in the Spring ( April) prior to potting them up for the first time? This was a lovely video to watch and I am sending it to many of my Dahlia growing friends.
I am about to do what you just asked. I have done a lot of research, and I will put mine in dampened vermiculite wrapped in burlap and put into crates with holes, you DO have to check on them in case the vermiculite needs re-dampening (so they don't shrivel). I hear division is easier in the spring because you can see the eyes much better. I would recommend pre-washing them before you store. Good luck!
Hej Claus Putter du virkelig 3 planter i hver krukke? Synes ellers at kunne læse at de skal stå med 30-50 cm afstand til hinanden. Tak for nogle gode videoer.
I was looking for info on how to grow Dahlia's in pots but didn't get enough info to feel confident in buying the tubers and growing them. Do you cut the tubers into individuals or leave them as a clump, what soil mix - with or without fertilizer? When to water - what conditions am I looking for to know they need water? Are the pots covered ever - can I put them in the house or under an eave during the spring? When transplanted to larger pots, again what type of soil mix? When & with what to fertilize them with? What about fungus', bad bugs, or disease any tips? Perhaps you could do another video on everything you do for a single dahlia tuber cluster from overwintering to Summer blooms and when to dig up for another winter-over. I only have a patio so I will need to grow in pots but have full sun and am in zone 8 and know they will do well I just want to know what to do for a full year...as a new gardener I don't want to miss a step. The dahlia's have so many unique blooms -- they're gorgeous, as is your garden. Thank You Mr Dalby : D
Hi Mara! Laura from Garden Answer has recommended Bonide Rose X, I did try it on my dahlias and it killed the mildew very quickly. I bought the diluted type, because I wanted the spray bottle, and then I bought the concentrate. I just refill the bottle. It has a strong smell of garlic, but it does work!
I was curious about this, too. It features prominently in the video so it is surprising that doesn't mention it. Not sure it is the same one, but if you view the listing for his new book on Amazon, he says one that looks very much like this one was a seedling (so not a named variety).
