First Sprout for the Deep RED Dahlia has appeared!!!

I started Growing this Big guy Feb 10 after panicking that it was dying. I was worried i didnt store it properly. I Soaked him in luke warm water with tomatoe fertilizer added to it for half a day and then planted. He is a bit big for the pot.  The other tubers pictured are my Orange and White Dahlias grown in 2018. This is my first time digging up my dahlias and storing them over winter so i am not confident of what i am doing and im going to take notes on my journey!

Baby sprout came up Feb 28th 2019. Orange ones have yet to sprout. 








 This is a pic of One of its RED flowers from last summer with a little grass hopper sleeping in its petals! I cant wait for more!
