BEFORE:
We had about 15 dahlia tubers planted in this bed!
Now who knew the inside was hollow!!!
I love this photo...great job Mr. P!!!
Some dahlia plants I got a good amount out of tubers, and others not! This is my second attempt at digging out the tubers so I am not an expert of how to dig them out.
However, what worked for me was to dig a 12 inch circle around the base of plant and wiggle to you feel a heavy mass of tubers on your shovel. Yes, I did cut some tubers in half, and on some plants, I did not even really get more than 3 tubers.
This was a good dig!!!
I feel that this is what sweet poatoes would look like when freshly harvested????
The cleaned out bed! Thanks Mr. P for your help!
The dahlia tubers are drying now, to be put away for storage for the winter!
