Cafe Au Lait Dahlia Tuber
Cafe Au Lait dahlias are the queens of the dahlia world. Boasting huge, creamy dinner-plate sized blooms, they’re a prolific cut and come again variety, meaning for each stem you harvest, the plant will grow 2-3 MORE in its place, giving you dozens of blooms just from one plant each season.
Plant outside this week and they will give you blooms in a few weeks all the way until first frost in mid October.
These tubers are usually $10-15 each, but because they are our excess, we are clearing them out for $5 each. They’re limited in quantity, so grab one before they’re gone! Fulfillment will be farm pickup only, no shipping available.

Planting instructions (feel free to screenshot!):
1. Pick the Right Spot
Choose a sunny location – dahlias love at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
2. Prep the Soil
Make sure your soil is well-draining. Mix in compost if you have some!
(Avoid soggy spots – dahlias hate wet feet.)
3. Plant the Tuber
Dig a hole 4–6 inches deep.
Lay the tuber sideways, with the “eye” (little bump) facing up.
Don’t water yet! Just cover it with soil.
4. Space Them Out
Leave about 12-18 inches between plants so they have room to grow.
5. Wait to Water
Hold off on watering until you see green sprouts above the soil. Then, water regularly.
