Winter is upon us here in Oregon, so it is a good time to think about Spring planting of those Gorgeous Dazzling Dahlias!

Our Dahlias are all dug and safe and snug in their warm winter boxes. Give a Gift Certificate to the Gardener on your list and let them choose the dahlias they want.

Our online store is now Open! Orders will not be shipped until the Spring of 2012, beginning in April.  

If you need help winterizing your dahlias or deciding whether to dig them, just ask. We have some great tips for you.  You can also view some of our newsletters or see our Growing and Care section off the main menu.

Thanks for looking and enjoy!

   Things to do in Winter

Keep the dahlias from freezing. If your winters are not too harsh you can leave them in the ground, cut them back, mulch with leaves, sawdust or dirt. You can even put plastic sheeting on top before the leaves, or plastic caps, like margarine containers. This helps water from going directly down the crown of the dahlia clump and thus helps them from freezing or drowning.

If you live where the winters freeze into the ground down to where the tubers are, you will need to dig them and store them so they will not freeze and rot.  See our information under Growing and Care directions or email with specific questions.

It is generally not as hard or as intimidating as it sounds and we are here to help!

SHIPPING AND REFUND POLICY:

Payment is required when order is placed. If Credit/debit card is used, the card is charged when the order is received, this reserves the tubers for you.  The tubers are sent by US Mail, Priority or Parcel Post in April or May.  We ship in the order the orders are received, and start with orders we have from August.  If sent before April, we can't offer the guarantee on the tubers as weather can be  harsh at this time of year and the tubers could rot.  We typically do not send before March 1st.

If you live close and want to pick up your order, just indicate on the order form that you want to pick it up.  There will be no shipping charges on those orders.  We will let you know when they are ready.

 Our dahlias are state inspected. Tubers are guaranteed to have live eyes and to the best of our knowledge, be true to name.  If you receive a mix up in variety, or if they do not grow due to not having live eyes or sprouts, please let us know by October of that year.  We ask that you dig up the tubers and send them back to us for inspection. We will reimburse you for the postage.

These tubers, if found to be defective, will be replaced the following year if too late to replace the same year (After June 15th or if variety has been sold out). If you do not want them replaced we will issue a refund of the tuber price only.  We are not responsible for customer negligence, weather, soil conditions, and pest or rodent damage.
