jvdubb said: Technically dahlias have tubers, not bulbs. I would not plant in between tulip bulbs. That tuber/tuber clump (not sure how yours came) will multiply greatly. Also, if you want to save them after season you might have to dig them up and store. Not sure if hardy in your zone.

A great deal of gardening is just trial and error. All the word guidance in the world is no substitute for seeing how it actually works out in YOUR garden.
