Hey Kris,

I bought that Dahlia, what is it called as I lost the front label? I also bought the yellow version. I just dropped a massive tuber from it.

Really big flowers.

Helpful vid btw, thanks!

Unlikely to grow unless it has part of the stem base with dormant eyes on it.

That one fell off,

The rest is intact. I will plant it anyway see how it grows as it has roots.
