Dahlias look great in the garden bed or in containers. Look for a pot that is around six gallons for a single plant. A Jack Daniels Whisky barrel will comfortably hold three dahlias. Regardless of where you plant them, they will need staking. Don't skip this part:) Dahlia tubers come in many shapes and sizes. The size of the tuber does not determine the size of the plant or the bloom. Dahlias are divided into many different categories. My favorites are the ball dahlias like Linda's Baby, but I also love the open face dahlias like Star Child and Giggles. Bees love them too because of the easy access to pollen. The open face or single dahlias create more of a cottage garden vibe, another reason to love them. I have chosen nine dahlias for my core collection. Each year I will rotate additional varieties so there is something new and different to look forward to. Potted dahlias were started in mid-April to give you a jump on the growing season. I plant mine in the garden or in pots Memorial Day weekend.
