My goodness, you are dedicated - you’re pregnant, braving the wind and delivering a very thorough and informative video. Thank you so much, please take care and take time to rest.
We can hope that she had lots of help with this.
It's for the love of Dahlias.
I was thinking the same thing ! That wind looked spooky! I understand this is her job and she must get the work done but she’s preggers and I worry about her injuring herself !!! She’s tough lol
Love this information!
We can see that when we do what we love we glow😁
OH NO! the tuber you are cutting at 7:03, has leaf Gall. Also, if a tuber gets sliced off at the end, its still good. Its just if the neck breaks seperating the tuber from the crown. Then the tuber is not going to grow anything and you can dispose. But i have snipped the ends off of tubers to see how the inside is, and if there is no rot and the flesh looks good, just let it cure for a day and its fine! It is still enough energy stored in the rest of the tuber that remains to feed next years growth. :)
Thank you for spotting that! I'm still a rookie, and now I looked up videos on dahlia gall. Learned something new!
Yes, I noticed this, it's a very bad disease easily spread by cutting tools and sucking insects. I had one such very badly infected tuber when digging this autumn's dahlias, I immediately tossed in the household trash! I had a sizeable collection years ago the disease had spread through before I had realized what I was dealing with, I had to discard the entire lot :(
Dahlia tubers as a gift. “Who wouldn’t want that? “. I hear you
So excited!!! Tomorrow Melbourne metro Australia can finally go plant shopping!! After nearly 4 months of strict lockdown and retail shopping shut. I have been saving my Garden Answer merch to wear when this day finally came!! Thanks for giving me something to look forward too each day with your videos 🌷😼🌹😼🌻
I saw on the news that you (Melbourne) are out of lockdown. CONGRATULATIONS! I rejoice with you! Enjoy and still be safe. May God bless you all.
Kudos Melburnians!
🌻Great news for our friends in Australia! Have a wonderful time shopping for your plants 😍
Have fun plant shopping for your garden - wow! ✨🌸🌺🌹🌷🌱✨
Elections matter......have fun!
"Who wouldn't like that?!" Got that right!
I recently started watching your videos and I’m always struck with how generous you and your husband are. Not just in your knowledge but your spirit. The joy of sharing tubers made your eyes light up. Simply amazing.
🌻Coffee and watching Laura work her garden magic - priceless. ☕️🧡🎃
That's exactly what I'm doing now 😁. She is amazing, its so inspiring to watch her explaining with so much passion and dedication everything about gardening. Its begining of Spring down here in Argentina, and after watching this video I'm heading to the garden! 😉👩🏻🌾
“I’m a slow learner.” 😂 You are the best Laura! ❤️
First video I watch every morning ! I love your content ! God bless you !
FIVE HATHCOCKS #THE FAM .... last video l watch every night 10 pm ... from Australia 🤗🇦🇺
“Who wouldn’t like that?” 😂 Only a garden lover would say that! 🌸💕
I know. I would love it
Love your videos and this one was so helpful!
I don't know if anyone has mentioned, though at the 6:00 mark of your informative video, that particular dahlia has developed a proliferation of new shoots and appears to be infected with leafy gall disease. Unfortunately, such tubers should be removed and disposed of, as this is a disease that can spread to other dahlias via pruners and other tools, possibly even by sucking insects. Years ago, when I had grown a sizable dahlia collection, the disease had been transmitted to most of my dahlias before I had even known what I was dealing with. I'm now again building up a collection and found one such diseased tuber this fall, to the middle of the hot compost pile it had gone!
I very much enjoy your videos and plant suggestions !!
Great info! How did you know it had leafy gall disease?
@@tracypilger5324 Hi Tracy, at the 7:15 mark and while she continues working on this particular tuber, you can clearly see the areas of abnormal growths of leafy gall disease. When digging my tubers this autumn, I came across one with very bad leafy gall, it was immediately placed in a plastic bag and into the trash! Tubers showing this disease will begin having a hard time producing normal shoot and top growth development. 😪
I am exhausted just watching you! I wish I still had your energy! Great instructional video.
Good morning, have a wonderful day, love from Melbourne Australia where it is 10 o’clock in the evening
Good Afternoon from coastal North Carolina :-)
So happy for you all in Australia- happy spring/summer gardening. I hope you all stay healthy.
Laura. I’m like you. Visual learner. This is my third time watching this video. This time making notes. But as you mentioned at the end - it is so helpful to watch you go through the process first then do the recap. Had you gone through the list before I would not have picked up as quickly and just talking it out would definitely not have been enough! So thank you very much for taking us through this step by step. These are my most favorite videos you do.
It amazes me that these weird little alien potatoes grow such stunning flowers! Is it just me or does that seem weird? I think this little piece of your property was just my favorite this year. SO beautiful!
Saw a dollar store dahlia and took a chance.Its now a 5ft dinnerplate pink beauty.Im now in love with them.Thank you for this tutorial.
THANK YOU for walking us through the process using all the “visuals”! I think most gardeners are probably visual learners😉🌸❤️
That wind is fierce!!! Thanks for showing process. I’m a visual learner, also! 🍂
I learn something from you every day. Thank you so much for all your wealth of information.
Miss Laura! You are not a slowlearner. Your visuals are helpful for everyone. Love it!
Always giving that thumbs up because a video from you guys has literally never disappointed!
Always inspiring and always bringing joy! Thank you 💕
You can keep the tubers that have snapped off on the ends😊 Just recut the end (to make sure it’s not rotting) and then dip in cinnamon (anti-fungal). I actually cut the ends off all my tubers to check for rot and then dip in cinnamon.
Great idea thanks 😊
Great to know
Good pesticide as well
I know why I plant only annuals ! You are truly dedicated, god bless you for all the work and knowledge you share with us. Thank you 🙏
Really enjoyed your video. I share you enthusiasm about gardening. I have found it really therapeutic since my Husband died recently. Keeps my mind occupied. Yours is the most clearly explained video on how to keep and store Dahlias that I’ve seen. Thanks. Ann from England.
Dahlias are so worth the extra work! They bloom endlessly from June to hard frost. Mine actually had a hard frost and are still blooming. I love the variety of beautiful colors to choose from.
No way really? I must be doing something wrong mine are still small and just leaves. :( 😞 my first time planting then
I have watched tons of videos about digging dahlias. You certainly made this project understandable. I always dig my dahlias and some years they shrivel and some years they don't. Storing them in leaves has been the most successful for me.
Thank you for showing how to store dahlias. Great tips ✅
Laura, Thank you so much for informative video. So labor intensive that's why I shied away from tubers for years. A few years back I decided to buy some Dahlias from Home Depot and have had them in a raised bed and have never lifted them at the end of the season. I have been blessed every year with beautiful flowers , I guess I got lucky?
Best, clearest Dahlia digging tutorial I've ever seen :) I would love to see your spring follow up! Kudos as per usual from North Idaho zone 6a 😊🌿💚🌻
I overwintered dahlias for the first time last year. Thank you for all the encouragement that gave me the courage to try all sorts of new things in my landscape! Dahlias are so beautiful, and I had always been intimidated by them...
Oh my lord, that’s a huge project! This is one time I’m NOT jealous of your garden. Wish you’d showed a “before” pic of the tubers to see how they developed, but kudos for the show & tell. You’re opening up a whole new gardening world for me. Based on your video (storage space needed and work required) I’d be willing to commit to ~10 tubers. I’ve never thought to grow them so Thank you so much! PS: your full energy will return post-pregnancy but the difficulty level you feel as you get more pregnant is good practice for when you get older. At 64 I’m gardening like I’m due in 6 weeks. 🤣
Ain’t it the truth?! I’m one year behind you. I wish I had half of her energy and stamina!🤣
Great analogy.
I'm 69 I hear that! Lol
Uhhh she does have a before video ya know? The video where she planted all of them...
Lol-I’m 68 and I couldn’t do any of this is I didn’t pace myself! I love 💕 every moment of it though. Loved having my hands on the dirt and planting things since childhood!
You work so hard Laura. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you do for us folks that are new to the gardening scene. I am 66 years old and have watched your videos for the last two years. It is not to late to learn how to garden and enjoy the benefits of the beauty and nourishment it brings. God Bless you and your family.
I label my tubers individually with a sharpie, works great
Wait. You WRITE, directly onto the tuber?!
Yes on the tuber doesn't hurt them at all.🙂
@@Bamboo4U2 yep! Write directly on them.
@@margierousu468 that's crazy. I never considered that.
My favorite way to store tubers is to divide in the fall and wrap each tuber in shrink wrap, it takes a little time BUT I don’t loose half my tubers from drying out and it takes up very little storage space. Then I put each variety in a plastic grocery bag and put them in a box in the basement. This method is suggested by the dahlia society and it works!!!
How do the tubers breathe within all that plastic? And also? Plastic?
I was quite amazed that this method worked as well - thinking that they would rot, but it actually holds the moisture to keep them from drying out. Important that you wrap each one separately. Two years ago I lost more than half my tubers from drying out and found this method. Don’t try Saran Wrap, it’s harder to use than shrink wrap, you have more control.
I read the same from the Dahlia Society. It's a great process and less space.
What is shrink rap? I haven't heard of that before. I live in Cardiff uk
@@helenkoulouridis8001 Hi Helen, Shrink wrap can be a plastic wrap placed around a pallet for packing or what I use is Saran Wrap a clingy plastic on a roll used at home to cover left over food before it goes into a refrigerator.
Wow, a labor of love! I had no idea how much tender loving care goes into storing dahlias!
Thank you, Laura, for sharing so much knowledge with us. Please make sure you are taking it slow, don't stress over videos.....trust me; we are not going anywhere. You are glowing, and your energy is always contagious. Thank you for being yourself and not changing over the years. So humble and simply amazing.
Thanks for info Laura. I appreciate the time n effort it takes y'all to make these videos. I look forward to waking up to your videos. Have a blessed day 🌄☺
I know a dahlia- grower that marks their tubers with sharpies, says it works great
Yes have done that it does work great!
I love the way you give us such great information and show the process! I can’t imagine doing as much as you do, clearly you are the most energetic person. Dig the Day Laura, Dig the Day❤️
Thank you for showing me why I would never fuss with this plant. I admire your expertise and ability to make it work. Way too much work for me. I appreciate learning these things before I launch into it!
Perfect timing - I should get a light frost on Saturday so I’ll dig on Sunday (zone 7b) Thanks for the visual😊
Oh perfect! I planted Dahlias for the first time this year! Just a handful as an experiment, but they flourished beautifully here and produced many stunning blooms Laura! Soon they will need to be brought up and stored for winter here in the Southeast! So THANK YOU SO MUCH Laura!!! I'm very excited to do this right!!
felling the soil with bare hands lets you know how good it is. helping my dad with the garden gave me a love for the soil. I walked bare foot behind the garden tiller the soil felt like velvet and the memories of working with Dad are precious
I love it! You are beyond helpful as I would have never even attempted Dahlias before. You said it when you said that you have to see things to learn! That’s me! 🤷♀️ Now that you have shown us how it really can be done and it’s not really hard I for one am looking forward to adding them next season!
Hi Laura! Great info. I would have just cut each one, I did not know about the eye. I'm always amazed at your knowledge!
Its not that hard to do a simple search on Google for "splitting and storing dahlia tubers" She is learning about the tubers as she goes along and I'm sure she's only just learned about the eyes this past year.
I dont rinse the tubers at all, to avoid any moisture. Just check the tubers by pressing to find the rotted ones. And I cover them in old blankets, it work just fine. No sand or shaving or vermiculite, but this really depend on the place of storage. I put mine on the floor of root cellar, not heated, no freezing.
Práve čítam či niekto používa aj piesok... pozerám že ako jedina si to zatial spomenula a potom pozrem a aha Slovenka :)
@@katystraw piesok na Slovensku je viac dostupny aj cenovo oproti vermikulitu. Prave vcera som si uvedomila ze mi tu v strede Europy nemusime riesit ci je to slany piesok z mora, kedze u nas iny ako z lomu nie je. V Britanii tam je vacsinou piesok morsky a ten k rastlinam nie je vhodny vobec.

I enjoy watching professionals, who have learned or been trained correctly. By dahlias, see ya next spring. You are a credit to our industry.
Hello from Australia, I bought 2 dahlias last summer, but never got around to putting them in the ground so they died, so i thought, and was very upset with myself, so i was cleaning the back yard last week and thought just get rid of them and started pulling them out from their pots and realised they have tubers, oh my god was i happy😁 so i left them in the pots, so now i know what to do with them, thank you so much 👍❤😊
Perfect timing; I have to do this and needed this tutorial!
Laura, that wind sure is howling outside, take care and stay safe while digging those dahlia tubers. A pair of clear wrap-around safety glasses might help keep blowing soil out of your eyes. I store my canna tubers the same way as you store dahlias, except I usually store them in sand or wood shavings. It's been a long time since I've planted dahlias, so I appreciated the refresher on how to get them ready for storage. I always enjoy your videos! You accomplish more in one day than I do in a week, and I'm not pregnant! 💕 💪 💕 👏👏 ~Margie
Great video as always. My family used to have a “dahlia day” in the spring and we would split up and share our different varieties. It was such fun.
Thank you for both the visual and the narrative. I too am a visual learner. Your demo was very thorough and exactly what I needed. The narrative list of steps at the end reinforced the process. I will be taking this on very soon! Your thoroughness of knowledge and attention to every detail that you pour out-all with a passion and love for plants- is second to none. I’ll certainly-most certainly will be checking your spring videos on dividing and replanting. God bless you.
7b Philly I always leave em and they come back every year bigger and better.
Really? I’m zone 7. So I can leave them in the ground and they’ll come back ? Need any mulching or protection?
Now I remember why I’ve never planted tubers! 😂 maybe someday.....
Start small. A handful; five or less. Her scale would be overwhelming to most gardeners but remember, she's getting paid to garden (on her own property, no less).
@@Bamboo4U2 yes, the scale of her task ahead was in the back of my mind when I became totally overwhelmed by watching this video. Thank you for the hug back into my reality and do-ability.
@@JudyG53 it's cool. We're all living vicariously through her. We all want her garden but know if it was our property, we'd all start to calculate how many landscapers we could afford to help us, lol.
Jake Jones You are so right. My husband had to pull me back to reality. I still have many plants that have yet to be planted, still in their cans. Went overboard in the spring. She over-inspired me.
@@JudyG53 Laura certainly does a LOT of work, but she does have some top-notch help (just off camera)
First off I want to thank you for always bringing Your authentic and genuine personality to this world. I am truly grateful to have your knowledge and look forward to every new video. I am a rookie gardener and you have been such an amazing mentor.
I dug up my tubers when we had our first big frost a couple weeks ago. I let them dry for 24 hours then put in a cardboard box with some paper on the bottom and wood shavings. I went out to check them this morning after I saw your video posted. I noticed a couple of tubers are starting to look shriveled. They are in our mudroom and I have watched the temperature which stays around 40-56 degrees. I lost them already!!?? 🤦♀️🤦♀️
I love your modesty! You’re always on point and loaded with information! I really enjoy your videos. Your property has exploded over the past three years and it looks beautiful!
This is always a bittersweet time of year. It’s sad seeing the dahlias all killed back but the holidays are nearly here! Have you ever tried propagating dahlias by cutting? I think it would be interesting to see you pull one of the tubers out in late winter and plant it up in the plant room to get some nice cuttings. Theoretically every rooted cutting should produce a new tuber over the growing season!
Oh I would love this!!!! I'm gonna try in the spring but would love laura to walk me through it haha
Ashley Yorke Hopefully Laura will make a video on it but if not propagating dahlias from stem cuttings is super easy! I recommend taking your tubers out of storage and planting them in containers indoors in about March (depending on your climate) and then in April the stems should be about 8-10 inches tall (dahlias tend to grow quite fast). At this point you can take 3-4 inch cuttings and root them in perlite. Once they’ve formed roots you can move them to potting soil and just like that you have more plants! The mother plant will still bloom like normal and all of the cuttings will bloom and form full size tubers by the end of the season. Good luck! ☺️
@@grownbydesign whoa! Thanks! I had no idea!
Elayne Lofthouse I may have to add this to my own list of videos to make in the spring. Good luck if you give it a try!
I grow my dahlias in pots then just throw the pots in my attached garage for the winter which doesn't freeze. Do the same with cannas and elephant ears.
I may try this method this year
Last year i rinsed, used vermiculite and boxes in attached garage . I think that was still a bit too dry.... did you leave the dahlias in the actual soil? Or take them out of soil and then place in pots, THx!
I do this with elephant ears. Same plants for at least 10 years.
Like Laura said though, it depends on your climate's humidity whether or not that method will work for dahlias.
Mis Bunny what zone are you in?
ah crap i forgot to bring my Canna's in and it's already been 20 for about a week... I so want to blame getting a puppy in the fall but that seems like a lame excuse after watching this video knowing that Laura is pregnant and had 200 + to do and I only had like 4 pots! LOL oops
Hi Laura, thank you so much for making this video. I was just waiting for you to make this Dahlia bulbs storing video. As you said at the end, I am the same personality like you, I’m a slow learner and I always like to see somebody doing it then I get kind of a clear idea. So thank you very much. I❤️all your videos. Happy Gardening🌱🌿🌻🌷🌺
Honestly I love flowers but I have no where to garden at my condo, but your videos are so soothing and I adore them! Something about your voice is so angelic. ❤
Thank you for this! I bought my very first Dahlia at a farmers market this spring and I cannot believe it…it’s bloomed since Spring and still going strong! Tomorrow is the first day of Fall and still beautiful! Can’t wait to preserve it for next year! Thank you again…and I am just like you…I need to see and see again to learn.
Thanks for sharing as always. I do have to say that I was so looking forward to watching you dig them all up. I know we ask a lot from you but you have spoiled us lol. It was nice to watch what you did show. Thanks again!
You are planting the three best and favorites tubers of mine. Would love to see your garden in fool bloom.
Thank you for the demonstration of lifting and storing dalhia tubers. I have viewed the tubers at Lowe's but I have never planted them in the landscape. I will definitely trying planting dalhia tubers in the future and try storing them if they thrive.
Have a great day!
Ditto on the needing to see something done over and over. There are always unexpected variables and it helps me so much to see people do this. I have just one dahlia and I'm so anxious that it will die over the winter once I store it. Watching different videos helps because everyone has little bits of extra advice to consider. Thanks for sharing!
Dana T.
I didn’t rinse my tubers when I dug them up. Most of the soil fell off when I pulled them. I hope they’ll be ok 🥺. They’re dry and already stored so 🤞🏾
I dont rinse mine and they make it just fine🙂
@@margierousu468 Thank you!! I got a little worried. Its my first year digging them up
Your knowledge is so impressive. I was wondering what the light requirements are for the bulbs you planted in containers that you said could be stored in a garage or shed?
You are NOT a slow learner - you are exacting which leads to your success.
i love your personality. I am also a visual person and i love that you created this video for people like us. Loveeed it thank you!!
Best way to deal with tubers like this is simply don’t plant them! My #1 gardening rule: if they’re not hardy in my climate, they don’t belong in my garden. But those were some beautiful dahlias and if you’re really into all that work, have at it!
Like she said, you CAN leave them in the ground (with a thick mulch and maybe a cover), but it's a little riskier, and you can't divide them
I agree! Way too much trouble!😩
Oh my goodness the dahlias changed overnight!!! You have inspired me to plant dahlias next year, they have been gorgeous. How would you know if the stored tubers need misting when you’re checking them once a month? You have very nice handwriting 😁
I just found your channel when I saw the video about putting in your water feature. I am really enjoying the information you present and the way you are presenting it. Thank you for sharing with us!
My one year update. Following your method I was successful and had lots of beautiful Dahlias this year which I planted from last years tubers. I just dug up and cleaned this years off. Thanks again for all the help.
Love this! I have never grown Dahlias before, so this was a great video for me. As always a morning of encouragement! 🌻👩🏼🌾🌻
Wow, a lot to do in the cold and wind. So worth it. Question, how many bags of Vermiculite did you go through? Thank you so much for sharing.
Love this video. I grew some gorgeous dahlias this summer and want more next year 🙏🏻❤️🥰
Wow! Those multiplied fast. Can’t imagine digging all those up and storing. You do have a lot to do. Those type of gifts are always nice.
Such a great thing to divide.
Can you do a video when you check on them? I would really like to know what to look for. I know you said it, but a visual would be amazing
About 10 min in I'm sure that dahlia was staring at me.
LOL!
Very informative, thank you! Dahlias are quite a bit of work but so worth it! You’re awesome to keep rolling out these helpful videos while you’re expecting your baby girl! We gardeners appreciate you!
I picked some dahlias at the end of the season over a week ago to save the blooms from frost and I was quite surprised how long cut dahlias remain so beautiful for so long. I’m going to give it a try to see if I can winter-over my dahlias. I don’t have as many as Laura!
That's what's happening here in AZ and freezing temps for us.
Thanks for this video. I really needed it. When you check on them once a month, do you pull EVERY individual bunch of tubers and inspect it, or just check the general moisture content of each container and watch for obvious stuff, like bad smell?? It seems like so much work to inspect every single tuber once a month and then repack them all.
So don't grow hundreds, like Laura, lol. Try three or four.
I love that you go over things visually!!!
These videos are always so incredibly informative! I CANNOT get enough! Thank you so much for sharing all of your wisdom!
Some Growers will add a little fungicide to the mix just in case a fungus would attack the bulbs.
Hm! I'm zone 12a and totally clueless on what to do with mine. Would love to get some gardening tips for this zone too :)
thank you for all your videos you have inspired me so much in the last 3 years .I haven't garden since I was a kid but after coming across your videos you have inspired me to beautify my garden and yard so thank you so much
Years ago when I ran a garden crew we used to use manual hedge clippers to cut the foliage off the tubers. It saves your hands lol!! Have fun and stay warm!
I have ONE dahlia to dig. LOL! But it's gorgeous, given to me from a sweet friend. I saved shredded paper in a box (from work) and am wondering if I can store the tubers in the shredded paper. ??
that is also what I was going to try
I remember you saying something about you needing to dig the Elephant ears up y’all have by the chicken coop, will you be treating them and storing them the same way as these? I have a few elephant ear plants I am needing to do something with and don’t know what I need to do? If someone could help that would be greatly appreciated lol 😁
I also could use advice. I brought mine inside and it is multiying itself quickly. 😂 way to big for my living room
Thanks for yet another informative video! After watching it I ordered some Dahlias tubers first time in my life. I’m looking forward to planting and share the tubers with others next year!
Laura you make EVERYTHING you do look so easy. I know you have a lot of experience. I know you have your videos edited to make it look earierish. And i know experience also brings organization and/or the knowledge on what you will need and what you need to do. Either way you still break it all down or as i say a lot dumb it down for people who have never gardened at all feel like they could accomplish it as well. One of the most important and the awesomest thing is you are honest about your fails. That helps us all . Makes you incredibly trustworthy and real. You and Aaron are genuine good people and you are doing wonderful things by showing us all what we too could achieve. God Bless you all. I pray that your baby girl takes it easy on her momma as much as possible.
why do you have to moist the vermiculite? shouldn't it be completly dry? and if it's moist, won't it cause the tubers to rot?
absolute zero chance I would ever put this this much work into growing a flower (plus the staking when they're growing), but interesting to watch!
Yeah, but what about three or four? That's manageable for most people, no?
it might take a lot of work, but in the end, it's so rewarding. ☺️
@@Bamboo4U2 I'm betting that there's more of us out there with limited garden space anyway so I totally agree. I know my garden isn't big enough for 275 of anything lol! But it sure is fun to see Laura do her thing!
@@heatherw.2751 bingo. Most of us have no property at all, lol.
I just love how you explain everything! Thank you so much! I learn something new every time I watch your videos.
Thank y'all so much. I'm new to trying to do this with dahlias. Y'all are a huge help.
Blessings, julie
Curious: are y’all north enough to see the Northern Lights in winter?
so south i'm almost reaching tropical zone lol 😂😭
I love close by and can say normally no. There is always freak occurrences
we just missed the equator so, that'll be a no on that lol
Though I have heard of very rare accurances where they have been seen in Oregon, it is definitely not typical that we do.☹
In Oregon we don’t see northern lights. If only...
Well at least now I know why all my bulbs rotted. I was definitely doing it wrong. 🎃🍁🦃
Thank you for the visual education. I read lots of gardening books that explain how to do things and I always fall asleep in the middle of their explanation. I need to watch it being done for it to sink in. I have a beautiful pot of dahlias on my porch that I want to keep for next year.
Stay warm. Good information. I had no idea about dividing the. Very frugal. Thanks.
