Dividing dahlias is a quick and easy way to propagate them, meaning you'll get more plants for free. And, as one of the best summer bloomers, boasting a stunning spectrum of colors and forms, who wouldn't want to multiply their stock?
Dahlias produce more of their fleshy tubers each growing season, resulting in often-large clumps. Every year or two, healthy sections can be carefully cut apart and replanted. It can be a little more fiddly than dividing other plants, but you'll be rewarded with lots more flower power for your borders and pots.
