Planting Information:

Dahlias are shipped as single tubers with minimum one eye guaranteed per tuber. If you are not able to plant the tubers upon arrival, store in a cool, dry, dark location.

Plant Dahlia's after the last Spring frost and soil has warmed to 15°C (60°F). Pick a well drained, rich, organic flower bed or planter to plant into. Loosen the soil to a depth of  30 cm (12")  before planting.  Add compost and all-purpose granular fertilizer to the planting area and mix well. Dig a hole and plant the tubers, keeping the stem(s) or sprouts upright. The top of the tubers, where the sprout emerge, should be positioned 3-6" below the soil surface when the hole is filled in. Fill in around the tuber, firmly pressing down the soil so it is even with the surrounding ground, and water well.  Make sure there are no air pockets in the soil.  If planting in a container, ensure there are adequate drainage holes.  

Tips:

- To get a jump start to the flowering season, you can plant the tubers in pots indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Once the shoots appear, please provide ample light with indoor grow lights or south-facing window. 

- When the plants are 30 cm (12") tall, pinch off the top of the main stem.  This will stimulate branching producing more stems and flowers.

A common mistake when growing dahlias is to overwater tubers you have just planted.  Too much water at this early stage can lead to rot. Water once when you first plant the tuber, then wait until you spot the first sprouts before watering again.

To prevent disease, keep the foliage of dahlias as dry as possible. Water deeply once or twice a week, allowing the 2.5 cm (1") top of soil to dry out in between waterings. 

- Dahlia plants will benefit from supplemental organic water-soluble fertilizer every 3-4 weeks until September. Stop fertilizing in September to promote better overwintering of tubers.

- It is important to deadhead (remove wilted blooms) to encourage new buds, otherwise the plant will stop blooming and will focus its energy on seed production. Trim spent dahlia blooms with clean sharp garden scissors just above the point where the flower stem intersects with a leaf. 

- Cut blossoms liberally for indoor flower arrangements to encourage more branching and flower production. Despite a relatively short vase life, dahlias make gorgeous bouquets.

- Dahlias do not propagate reliably from seed, so if you'd like to keep and multiply your dahlia stock, make sure to dig up the tubers in fall.

- Dahlia tubers can be lifted for winter storage at any time, as long as the plant had been growing for over 120 days.

Overwintering:

- In fall, after the first frost has blackened the foliage, cut off all but 2 to 4 inches of top growth, and carefully dig tubers without damaging them. Allow to dry for a few days in a frost-free location, out of direct sunlight. Once dried, remove any excess soil, leaving 1 to 2 inches of stem. Store each clump of tubers in a ventilated box or basket. Fill the box with peat moss, clean wood shavings or vermiculite and place it in a cool, dry location. Saran wrapping individual tubers is also a great overwintering option, recommended by American Dahlia Society.

- Optimal temperature for overwintering is +4.4C-10C (40F-50F). Don't allow your tubers to freeze as they are extremely cold sensitive. If temperature is too warm however, they may start to sprout in storage.

- Maintaining proper humidity is crucial. If stored wet, tubers will mold and possibly rot. If they are stored too dry, they will shrivel up and may die. A little shriveling is perfectly normal and won't affect the viability of the tubers. 

- Check tubers periodically through winter for rotting and drying out. If the tubers appear shriveled, mist them lightly with water. If any start to rot, trim the rotted portion of the clump so it won't spread. The tubers are fragile, so be careful when handling them.

- When warm weather arrives, you can plant the overwintered tubers and begin the growing cycle again.

Best vent mounting solution for tacoma
Style: Magnetic Charger Mount
This is a must have for Tacoma owners. It's a secure lock into the vent frame and does not affect your ability to open and close vent. Installation takes a minute.

Misleading description
Style: Magnetic Mount
Misleading. It does affect the vent. You cannot turn the vent at all and it cannot be closed 100%. About 95% closed. Seems very well built and sturdy however, I wish I knew that you cannot turn the vent… Not sure how I feel about that, I may return it.

Happy after aggravating install!
Style: Magnetic Mount, Style: Magnetic Mount
Works now that I finally got it to hold. Otherwise would have given it 5 stars. The air vent ‘lip’ on my 2018 Tacoma is so short so not much for this to clamp on to. This was hard to install. Instructions didn’t have anything about putting the parts together and extra cushion pieces. I watched the video and it was like mine once I got it to hold. I tried with one layer then added a layer then removed added layer and then finally got it to hold! Maybe 10 tries! Now that it’s holding it’s perfect! I left it unscrewed just a little tiny bit so can move the phone view around a little. Happy now! Build quality: It seems to be pretty strong and will last my truck’s lifetime.  Phone mount: Like that it is strong magnet holder and not bulky Ease of installation: Not easy. Kept not staying attached then finally just got it. I don’t know magic trick but was just about to give up then it caught the small lip and held tight. Ever other attempt kept popping off as I tightened it down.  Value for money: I think at $39.99 was a little high but hopefully last one I ever buy.

Solid iPhone Holder
Style: Magnetic Mount
I’ve been searching for a phone holder that doesn’t take up one of the drink holders and actually works well. I had been eyeing a vent mounted holder but was hesitant until I found this one. It had good reviews and was designed to work with my Tacoma. I decided to try it and was pleasantly surprised. It was easy to assemble, fit perfectly, secured nicely, and held my phone in place even in bumpy conditions. The vent location puts it in a good alignment with my vision which is especially helpful when I’m using my navigation app. If you’ve been looking for a decent, reasonably priced, well-built iPhone holder, this is an excellent choice!
