In 2021 we introduced our first dahlia project. We ordered tubers from a variety of dahlia growers and sprouted and planted 40 dahlia tubers. The result was incredible beauty and lots of lessons!
What we learned
- how important it is to stake the plants
- how easy it is for scratching hens to dig down to the tuber level
- the noticeable difference a pile of compost makes to the plant
- and the amazing production of bloom after bloom in August, September and October!
