All dahlias have been grown on my farm. Tubers are guaranteed to be true to type and to have at least one eye. ( I dislike mislabels and I know you do too…I go to great lengths to assure varieties are correct)
You’ll receive one tuber (not a clump) for each item purchased.
Tubers will vary in size and appearance: some are small, some are large; some are wrinkled, some are rock solid. As long as an eye is present, the tuber will grow. I have marked at least one eye on each tuber, with a black dot near the eye. I will not send out a tuber without an eye! Every tuber will be viable!
I sanitize between plants, and cull plants that are unhealthy. However, virus is spread in many ways, and realistically I cannot guarantee virus free tubers.
*****This year, some tubers are apt to have thin necks, as a response to the varied extreme growing conditions in New England in 2025. Some tubers will have masking tape applied, as a precaution, to help them survive storage. Tape will add a bit of rigidity and also prevent drying out. If you receive a taped tuber, rest assured that the neck is not broken! Please DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE TAPE, as that might damage the tuber. The tape is biodegradable and will eventually break down.
If you have any concerns about your order, please contact me, within 3 days of receipt, at dahliaobsession2021@gmail.com. After 3 days, you assume full responsibility for your tubers.
A note on inventory: at time of sale opening, inventory count is accurate. Please be aware that losses can occur during storage, despite our best efforts. If I am unable to fulfill all or part of your order, you will be refunded…I do not substitute varieties.
