I'm surprised there is no forum for dahlias. There are so MANY different forms (possible vocabulary misstep there) and individual ones. I myself have traditionally avoided anything that instructs "lift in Fall". But I got 3 for free a couple of years ago and decided to grow them in clay pots on the deck, bringing them in for winter. Now I am so in love I am ready to expand.

BUT I HAVE QUESTIONS!

In the past, I have brought my few pots in about now. But there are fresh buds this year and it makes me want to give the leaves the most possible time to soak up what sun they can. IS THERE A TEMPERATURE POINT above freezing that I should bring them in for?
