Which suppliers, growers have you had the best experience with over the years? Which did you ave a bad experience with and which were simply ok? I had a good experience with Swan Island. I ordered from Hilltop Dahlias this year, and received an email asking when to ship them, and I told them to ship on April 15 or so, so I should be getting them soon.

I'm hoping for good things there. I ordered from Dans dahlias a few year ago, and it couldnt have gone worse unless they took money and ran, but they might as well have. Audiorealism Drum Machine Crackberry.
I've bought from local stores and it's been a mixed bag. I grew one variety last year that turned out to be mislabelled, and wasnt the same variety as advertised. I had another die after a 5 day rainy spell right after planting, but that wasnt the supplier's fault. I've also gotten a few good ones too.
What has been your experience? I've had fine experiences with everyone I've ordered from including Dan's. I've ordered from Hollyhill, Park's, Clack's Dahlia Patch, Ayer's Rainbow of Dahlias, Accent, Arrowhead, Swan Island, Pleasant Valley Glads & Dahlias, Dan's, Elden Gardens, Dahlias by Les & Viv, and Wynne's. I put in an order for the first time through Corralitos Gardens and Cowlitz River both of which I'm ordering cuttings from. I know CG is quite good since an acquaintance here in town released an anemone through them a couple of years ago and all seemed to go well.
I've only heard of one vendor I'd rather never buy from but it's more to do with their personality than their product. I'm not going to name any names but I'm sure some people might know who I'm talking about. I have always ordered from Swan Island and had great sucess. This year I ordered from them and two other suppliers. I ordered from Red Hawk, and I will admit that I was a little apprenhensive about this but they had great prices and I figured I would try them and see how it went. The tubers arrived last week and they were very nice tubers and all of them were already eyed-up and starting to sprout.
I also ordered from Lynch Creek but I haven't received that shipment yet. I think it will be here next week.
I will have to comment on them later. Most of these replies speak to TUBERS and not necessarily the plants per se, though I assume most replies end up meaning they were happy overall, which MUST mean the plants turned out OK. I am personally more interested in the quality of the plants than the way the tubers look out of the package because I have some real stinkers in my yard. They grow tiny plants or give only 6-8 blooms that seem to take forever to bud and bloom and then don't last long if and when they do bloom. Some of these stinkers came from Dan, some from Swan Isl.
Mail-Order gardening catalogs that specialize in dahlias and dahlia tubers. CLACKS DAHLIA PATCH 5585 N Myrtle Rd.
And some from Connells (RIP) and some store bought. I assumed I was doing something wrong in growing them but after several years of anemic blooms from the same now veteran tubers,I know it is the plant, not me. That said, I have no idea how the grower would know whether the plant would be a winner or loser so I still don't blame the grower. (Except for the big beautiful plump tuber I got last year that NEVER grew and when I uprooted it, saw it had no eye on it at all. But boy the tuber should looked and still looks good!)I won't name the grower since it is on everybody's list from above. I sure wish I could tell which were going to be hardy and which were going to be lean ahead of time though! It is SO aggravating to have a prime spot set aside in my yard and then NOTHING while I am out checking it daily for anything growing.
Makes me feel like a kid hovering on the steps on Christmas Eve waiting for Santa. I got my order from Lynch Creek today and the tubers were nice bigs ones with eyes already sprouting. The packing kinda surprised me though. They came individually packaged like you would see for sale in a store. I have had a few tubers in the past from Swan Island that have not grown and they happily replaced them the next year but overall most everything I have grown has done well in my yard. I know some of the larger dahlias do not produce a lot of flowers.
When purchasing the bigs ones I try to look for ones that say they are a heavy bloomer for their size. To Davidinsf: I was generally asking not only about how the tubers looked, but how the plants turned out or whether they grew at all. I disagree that the grower would have no idea whether their plants are going to be winners or losers.
They GROW them! They grow them from start to finish, so they certainly SHOULD know if the plants are of good quality, or if they bloom well, or if their flower colors are good or bad, etc. Why wouldnt they, unless we're talking about dahlia farms run by the blind! I was happy with the plants I've gotten from most suppliers except Dans. The ones from Swan Island looked as good as the pictures in the catalog or better. It DOES also come down to how well WE do our jobs growing them too!
Look at Google images pictures of different varieties of dahlias. There are many there that look terrible! That might be mainly the fault of the person who bought and grew these tubers.
If your soil is lousy, the ph is way off, you dont get enough sun, not enough moisture, or too much, etc. Not enough or too much nitrogen. Maybe that was the problem with your dahlias(?) Apparently too much Nitrogen at the wrong time, or not enough sun can prevent them from flowering well. Company Of Heroes 2 Steam Cd Key Free. I have bought from Accent, Elkhorn,Cowlitz, Clack's and Jan's and don't recall ever getting a 'bad' tuber.
The one's that didn't grow were because of bad weather, cat's digging them up or 'fertilizing' them or maybe something that I did wrong. I've been very pleased. The problems I have had have come from buying from sellers rather than the actual growers. A few years ago I received eight tubers out of eleven that were not what I ordered. The seller did offer a refund. I don't believe they have the necessary control over the product as a grower does. There is nothing more frustrating than waiting a couple months for a bloom only to find out it is not even close to what you thought you were getting.
This is why I usually only order from the growers. A couple of times when I needed a replacement I have gone to Home Depot or Lowe's and bought a couple. The advantage there is that you can see through the bag and find any sprouts. Also since they sell clumps, it's sometimes possible to buy a bag of three and end up with 6-9 tuber divisions. I have a question about how the tubers look. On all but part of one order, the tubers were smooth with most having buds or visible growth.
A few tubers are very large and firm, with rough skin (pitted) and no visible eyes yet. I am worried that these are old and may not grow. What is a reasonable amount of time to wait before trying to replace them? All of the tubers that I stored are growing nicely, and all of this year's orders are starting - except for these few.
Perhaps these are simply later varieties but would be interested hearing your thoughts. I pre-start all my dahlias before planting so I know they are going to grow. Yes, it is a lot of extra work, but I like doing it!
Our 'warm' season is not very long here and in order to give the plants plenty of grow time to be ready to flower, I like to have them about 18' tall before planting in the garden. I do FINALLY have a greenhouse which helps to get them off to a good start, but if you have only a few then they can be started on a porch and covered up or taken inside when it is too cold for them.
I played that game for many years before getting a plastic pop up greenhouse. That worked great and I had nice big dahlias that were used to the sunshine when they went out. Now I have a regular greenhouse and sell my extra tubers. The other option is to let them 'eye up' before planting but not pot them up. THat way you always know they are alive and healthy when they go in. Lay your tubers out on damp soil in the light and the eyes will get the message to start growing stems.
You will see the little eye get bigger and then you know it is alive! I have found Wynne's dahlias very slow to eye up and some haven't but the ones that have have been worth the trouble and waiting. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND prestarting these! SOme of mine grew so slow that they did not get around to blooming before frost last year.
Most curious thing I have found as I dug my dahlias this spring to divide them.the Candy Jane I planted last year that never grew had about 8 bud eyes coming off the collar, but no new tubers at all! Is seems to have just remained dormant for a whole year, and decided to grow now! It is now about 5' tall in its pot with abundant healthy foliage! Can't wait to see it bloom! (white cactus with red flecks!) Keep learning. Never give up. This year I bought two of the Wynn dahlias, Farmer John and King Salmon.
I potted them up a couple of weeks ago and I see Farmer John is already coming up. I hope these two don't take too long to bloom as I really want to see both of them. I also start all my dahlias in pots because I want them to have a head start and hopefully be blooming by mid July. Lizalily, you will have to post pictures of Candy Jane. That was one dahlia that I wanted to get this year but didn't end up getting. I think it looks fabulous. I am going to the local dahlia society tuber sale next weekend.
Maybe I will get lucky and find that one there. After my first couple of years I now only buy from Swan Island. Last fall my husband and I went to Oregon for their annual festival. What I saw made me wonder why I even try growing them in Nebraska with our hot windy summers. My experience is that if the plant is bad, it's usually because of something I did wrong. This year I've had 15 of 40 sprout in pots in 6 days time. I'm sure over the next few days the rest will be popping up.
I've won best of show at the Nebraska State Fair several times, always using Swan Island tubers. I ordered from the usual suspects this year. Dahlia Barn, Corralitos Garden (had good luck last year, they come as plants, not tubers), and Swan Island for the first time. I also have bought from Costco (but none this year) and Home Depot for the first time this year. Every thing is doing amazingly well and have already sprouted in pots except for my Swan Island dahlias. It is strange. The Home Depot dahlia plants are huge.
A few of my tubers that survived over winter are already up and out of the soil. I wasn't sure about a few and those have not sprouted, but had very visible eyes.
Swan Island - Nada. It makes me so worried when this happens but to be honest they arrived with non visible eyes, only one out of seven had a tiny bump and the rest had nothing visible (but we're not experts.). Oh well, we'll just wait and see I guess.
