Growing Dahlias from seed is so exiting because you never know what you’ll get, and each one is genetically brand new to the world.

Pictured are a selection of mine grown from seed this year.

Sow indoors 4-6 weeks before your last frost and plant outside only when all danger of frost is gone.

Enjoy the treasure hunt and each one blood for the first time, and then for the rest of the summer to frost.  Save your own seeds, or save the tuber to get the same flowers next year.
