This summer we grew out thousands of our own tissue culture rooted dahlia cuttings so that we could compare varieties grown from cuttings with varieties grown from tubers. Here’s what we found:????The varieties that were grown from cuttings flowered before the tuber...
Did you know that dahlias come in at least 20 forms (plus "micro" forms of most?)? Because of the amazing genetic diversity contained in the DNA of these glorious plants, hybrid seed crosses can produce a vast array of different-looking blooms. These forms can show up...
At Triple Wren, we plant thousands of dahlia plants in the ground each year. Despite our long rows and larger scale production, we still plant every tuber and rooted cutting by hand! We check every plant for pest damage and disease on a two-week rotation throughout...
