Splitting Dahlia Tubers

Splitting Dahlia tubers is a simple and easy method of multiplying your plants and keeping true to the parent variety. You can divide your dahlias in fall or spring (I prefer spring), and if you have the space, you can make it even easy by pre-sprouting them.

Here is what you will need:

  • A hard surface
  • A dahlia tuber
  • A sharp dahlia propagation knife
  • A container for your bounty
  • Anti-fungal powder (to coat the new cuts)
