How to Plant
1.
When overnight temperatures reach 5-10C, it is time. Start by digging a hole about 3-4 inches deep
2.
Place your Dahlia Mandrew Dahlia Tuber in the hole and dump any Pete Moss in your package into the hole with it.
3.
Cover with nice and loose soil (no need to pack it down), mark what you planted and where (so you don’t forget, silly). Sit back and wait. DO NOT water until you see a plant growing out of the dirt! Dahlia Tubers have enough juice to get them started and you run the risk of rotting them out, because they have no roots growing yet to drink with.
