    Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Crazy Love FAQs

    When do I plant dahlia tubers?

    Think of planting your dahlias when you plant your tomatoes. Plant in spring after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed to at least 60°F. In warmer climates, planting can begin earlier than in regions with colder springs.

    What is a decorative dahlia?

    Decorative dahlias feature fully double blooms with broad, relatively flat petals that overlap in lush layers, completely concealing the flower's center. Their blooms range from small to dinnerplate-sized, making them a popular choice.

    Do dahlias need staking?

    Staking is recommended, particularly in windy locations or when plants become heavily loaded with flowers. Providing support early helps protect stems as the plant grows.

    Why are my Crazy Love Dahlia leaves turning yellow?

    Yellowing leaves can result from overwatering, poor drainage, nutrient deficiencies, or natural aging of the lower foliage. Check soil moisture and drainage first, as consistently soggy soil can damage the roots and tubers.

    Will dahlias come back every year?

    Dahlias are tender perennials that can overwinter in the ground in sufficiently warm climates with good drainage. In colder regions, tubers should be lifted after frost and stored in a cool, frost-free location until spring.
