Will my dahlia regrow?
Depends on where you are. In my zone 6b garden I never have to dig my dahlias and they come up like clockwork every year, but if you are in zone 5 or north, I would say dig them., store them like sptfyr says. They are a tuberous rooted plant, a perennial where it is warm enough.
Reply:Depending on where you are you have the answers you need
Reply:Well, Dahlia bulbs need to be dug up and stored during the winter. I don't think it is too late so you can dig it up, shake off the soil and then you can place it in a paper bag with some wood shavings, shredded paper, vermiculite or dry sand and store it until last freeze of Spring has passed.


Good Luck
