Dahlia Virus
Dahlia viruses are common—the American Dahlia Society reports that 87% of healthy-looking dahlias may carry a virus. Unfortunately, virus symptoms can develop over time and cannot always be diagnosed visually.
While we cannot guarantee virus-free tubers, we are committed to minimizing risk by:
- Closely monitoring plants and removing any that show signs of illness
- Implementing strict sanitization protocols for tools and hands between plants
- Continuously improving our virus prevention efforts
-

Dahlia tubers come in many shapes and sizes—long, short, round, skinny, or irregular. No matter their shape, all tubers we ship will have:
✅ At least one visible eye (this is where the sprout will grow)
✅ Viability for plantingInspection Required:
- Please inspect your tubers within 24 hours of receiving them.

Some tubers may look different from what you expect, but as long as they have an eye, they are viable and ready to grow! Tubers are basically an ugly potato but grow gorgeous flowers!
