DAHLIAS

Dahlia Tubers

Dahlias are the most amazing flowers! I am totally smitten with their beauty and symmetry and pleased to share them with you. See photos, descriptions and prices of those below. Reserve dahlia tubers by emailing your wish list: carolynpfaught@gmail.com. Quantities will be limited and pre-orders will be filled in the order they are received, so make sure to get what you want! Pay when you pick up.

I will be shipping dahlias in 2024, so feel free to send me an email with your wish list. I will keep you posted on when I'll be shipping to your area (to ensure dahlias do not freeze en-route) via Priority Mail.

Each tuber is packed in vermiculite in lunch bags, and those not sold via pre-order can be found under my tent in early May. Each dahlia tuber will have at least one visible and viable "eye" which is needed for the plant to grow. Enjoy perusing my selection below!
