preferrably rooted, but just a cutting would be ok. I tried rooting a piece years ago an it rotten during the rooting stages. I'd like to still obtain one somehow. Anyone have this plant an willing to share? If I don't have something your wanting I can do postage, an I'm willing to wait til fall if need be being how they are dormant this time of year in some areas. PM me for my list, thanks.
Here is a link that may help. You can google it to. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/56917/ I love dahlias to, an really would like a tree dahlia.
Woah that is a first for me. One is never too old to learn new things. That is but one of the benefits of stewing with Stewbies. That tree dahlia is a beauty.
Well Glendann maybe between the both of us we can locate a piece, grow it off an share it down the road.
Well of course, if I ever do find a start yawl know I'll share. Thats the joy of gardening is sharing. Perhaps all those wanting a start can help locate, then we can all benefit.
Trudy an glendann an me and anyone else........ Lets put up a wanted sign Dahlia tree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I'd never heard of these before either, and googled to find this site which sells them...says they grow in clumps like bamboo up to 8 feet high! I know it would be too difficult for me to try to overwinter one of these here inside, but I'm anxious to hear if any of you have success with these in the future. http://http://www.plantdelights.com/Catalog/Current/Detail/05935.html
Thank You Kaseylib.Thats not a bad price either.I will try to get a Catalogue from them also. If I can call them and buy one I will.I never order of computer. I am looking for a Cloves Currant bush or tree.My daughter has one but the cutting I brought didn't take root.It has a stronger wonderful secent when in bloom .It scents her huge back yard better than her 7 lilac trees.She has honeysuckle bushes (tree) also .
If I read the shipping right, the shipping cost more than the dahlia. A trade would be much cheaper, if we can find someone willing to share. Thanks Kaseylib for finding it.
Oh if anyone can actually find a good source to purchase, please let me know. This is the most beautiful plant I've seen lately I have found one source, but just emailed them myself. Havn't heard anything back yet. They offer the ivory colored for $6 http://www.dahlias.net/htmbox/dahliadandies.htm
