Dahlias are the queens of the summer garden: so productive, so many different forms, so much delight! Learn what they need to do their best.

This crash-course in cut-flower growing will give you the broad strokes of the skills and techniques you’ll need to get growing flowers at home.

Digging, dividing, and storing your dahlia tubers is the most crucial task to get right for increasing your stock, keeping your plants healthy, and saving money on expensive tubers! In this workshop, get in the ground and dig whole clumps of tubers, wash them off, and practice dividing.

Fall bulbs are so much fun. They are my favorite things to plant in the fall, even after a long hard season, because they bring me forward into next season. And harvesting and experiencing their beautiful blooms in the spring always makes me feel like everything is going to be OK. Since meeting my partner, Nelson, whose Dutch family has a bulb-importing business, I’ve learned even more about how these amazing beings are cultivated, bred, and how to care for them in our very un-Dutch climate.
