Our 2026 dahlia tuber sale is now live!

We have over 100 varieties and a wide selection of black and white dahlias! We are a small farm and we don't have tons of each offering so our unicorns may sell-out quickly.

General Announcements:

All tubers ship in April and at the very latest, early May, as weather permits. We are located in zone 6a Western NY. We will always ship as early as it is safe to do so and will ship to southern states first. We are trying to get away from flat rate shipping and will meter each shipment based in weight. So shipping fees are variable based on the number of tubers in your cart. We will write the name of the variety directly on each tuber with marker and will pack all tubers in one bag of vermiculite.

What We Guarantee

We guarantee a viable eye and the dahlia variety.

If you get a blind tuber, we will refund that tuber value. If you get a mislabel, we will refund that tuber value.

We may ask for your patience as the tuber sprouts because some take longer than others and our cold climate gets them into deep dormancy.

Farmer Jamie touches every tuber 4-6 times between harvest, dividing, storage, storage check, labelling and shipping. This means we are paying attention to the quality of our tubers.

If the tuber is desiccated, we will not ship it.

If we can't find an eye, we will not ship it.

We will always ship the best stock that we have and keep the ugly ducklings, slightly desiccated and extra small tubers for our own farm.

Why does this matter? This means there may be occasional storage failure and refunds. You will be emailed and refunded in the event that our stored tuber stock does not meet our shipping quality standards.

 

What We Cannot Guarantee

Viral infection. We practice strict sanitation, cull and remove bad stock, and try very hard to keep our plants vibrant and healthy.

Unfortunately, we are unable to guarantee virus-free tubers.

We believe that many dahlia plants and tuber stock on the market may carry dormant viral infections that express themselves under stress (like humans).

We do not sell any tubers from plants with obvious viral infections- we have always removed these plants as soon as we have an indication there may be disease. 

How can you help your tubers grow into healthy plants? Keep your plants as stress-free as possible by planting them in warm, fertile soil, giving them adequate water and light and reducing transplant shock or delay. We highly recommend compost tea applications to build the microbiology of your soil which helps your plants to stay fed and their "immune-systems" strong.
