This was very useful. I bought several packs and planted in early spring. However, we have unseasonably warm weather this week so I hope it doesn’t adversely affect it. It is now May and no blooms yet just greens. At least now I know the dried out corms are normal. I have mine in self watering containers so I only need to water a few times monthly. I didn’t know I should save corms to plant in October, but now I know. I like the drawer you are labeling and saving all the corms and seeds in. This is a good idea too.

I just came across your videos and website early this year and am so grateful to find you! Excellent video, Thank you so much. I grew a few this season in one of my backyard planter areas, but am thinking I'd like to try growing in pots next fall so I can bring out to the front yard too add a big splash of beauty, and then tuck the pots away while waiting for foilage to turn brown before removing corms. How deep should the soil be including the 2" for corm placement?

@GrowingInTheGarden 3 года назад

Aim for a depth of 12-18 inches for the soil.

Do Dahlias also get through the hot sun in the summer? I'd would be really helpfull if you could create a video on Dahlias!!! xx :)

@@GrowingInTheGarden What a warm, lovely answer from Arizona! Hello, Hello there! Yes, I live myself in agony with the heat of the sun and the soil. For most "frosty" countries the blooms of September are the ones, not that much in August. But for us in the hotter climates, I think we'll be surprised in October or even November! We had our first rains in the 8th of December here in Greece last year... So... let's be delighted by our first experiment with the Dahlias!

@GrowingInTheGarden 2 года назад

My guess would be in the fall, but if you have some corms you could give it a try and see.

@benjaminlevin9864 2 года назад

Great video! Two questions 1. Can you replant the spring corm that flowered in the fall or do you need to do different corms in the fall and wait a year to replant the spring ones. 2. How do these propagate? Only by seed? Or do the corms grow new baby corms?

@GrowingInTheGarden 2 года назад

Yes, you can replant them in the fall and I've heard you can also grow from seed. The plants do form new corms each season as the plants die back.

@Angela-bv6cc Год назад

In hot climates can we just leave the corms in the ground for next year? If we can, do we still have to water them? I can't seem to find answers about this anywhere!

Hi Angela! I just got mine in the ground and I'm wondering about watering. You say give them a good water and then don't water again until sprouts show, does that mean it's ok if the soil dries up in between planting and sprouting? Or should we keep soil moist but not drenched?

If the soil dries out you can water - typically as temperatures cool the soil takes longer to dry out. So check it before watering. Moist but not drenched is a good idea.
