	growin' tips... Dahlia Grow in full sun or partial shade and rich, evenly moist soil. Plant after danger of frost has passed in spring, setting the eyes, which are located near the base of the previous year's stalk, facing up. Gardeners in cold-winter climates can get a jump on a short season by starting tubers indoors in pots or flats 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Varieties that grow much taller than 24" should be staked. Take care when pushing the stake into the soil to avoid injuring the tuber. For continued bloom, it is important to remove spent flowers. Fully hardy to Zone 8; well-mulched plants often over winter in Zone 7. In colder zones, harvest the tubers when frost blackens the leaves in fall. Dig up the entire root system and cut the stems off a few inches above above the top of the tubers. Place the tubers peat moss and store at a cool temperature 40-50°. Set tubers back outdoors after the danger of frost has passed in spring.
