DAHLIA TUBERS

Dahlia tubers will be available for sale online when dividing is finished in Winter, with a second release in Spring (after planting out our farm), until sold out. Email subscribers will be notified of the sale the day before advertised on social media.
All varieties will show as sold out until the sale is published. I keep my entire catalogue online and update it throughout the year with new varieties so that the variety information is available for everyone as a reference. If during dividing I find I will not be able to supply certain varieties in the upcoming tuber sale, I will mark them as not available for this year or remove them from the site during the sale.
I will not be shipping Dahlia tubers until eyes are clearly visible to all growers, guaranteeing you a viable tuber. Tubers BEGIN shipping in OCTOBER. My farm is in a cool climate area and it takes a good while for my tubers to wake up. I will not be shipping any dormant tubers earlier.
If any varieties that you order do not make it through storage, you will be contacted immediately and given a refund - I do not substitute tubers at my discretion as you are obviously ordering specific varieties.
Please contact me immediately (with photographs) if there is any issue on arrival of your order and I will rectify immediately (claim period is maximum one week after receipt). A Dahlia Growing Guide is provided with your order to assist you in storing and growing your Dahlia's successfully, however NO responsibility is taken by me for the tubers or their growth after you have received them. You need to monitor your tubers while they are being stored to ensure they stay in a viable condition. Every climate and soil type is different so it is very important you learn what works in your individual environment.
Please note that tubers should not be planted until all risk of frost has passed. The general recommendation in Australia is that Dahlias are planted the first weekend of November, but you can alter this to suit your own climate (at your own risk).
All Dahlia tubers available from Southern Highlands Flower Farm have been grown, harvested, sorted and packaged on the farm. No tubers are brought in from any other grower, so you can be assured that the quality meets my standards, and I therefore guarantee named cultivars (so please contact me if there is any mislabel concern once flowering).

PLANTS

All plants are young plants with strong healthy root systems, shipped in a recyclable / compostable pot that can be planted straight into the ground with your plant, reducing transplant shock.
All plants are sent beautifully and securely packaged via Express Post only to ensure your plants arrive quickly.
Please unpack and water your plants immediately on arrival and let them recuperate from their transport experience in a cool shaded area prior to planting. All packaging used is recyclable, so please reuse or sustainably dispose of the materials.
Please contact me immediately via email with photographs if there is any issue on arrival of your order. Failure to do so within one week of receipt removes any right to claim damage.
A Growing Guide is provided with your order to assist you in growing your plants successfully, however NO responsibility is taken by me for the plants or their growth after you have received them.
You are responsible for the health of your plants after receiving them. Every climate and soil type is different so it is very important you learn what works in your individual environment and take care of your plants accordingly.

SEEDS

All seeds are hand-harvested, sorted and packed on the flower farm. Please store your seeds in a cool, dry place until ready for sowing, then follow the instructions to grow your plants. All packaging used is recyclable, so please reuse or sustainably dispose of the materials.

You are responsible for the growth of your seeds.

Every propagation setup, climate and soil type is different so it is very important you learn what works in your individual environment and take care of your seeds and plants accordingly. No responsibility is taken by Southern Highlands Flower Farm for the growth of your plants after you have received your seeds.
