I've always wintered dahlias over and they've been fine until this last winter, but I think it was because of the location of them (in heavy clay, wet soil) more than the weather, because other dahlias in other locations were just fine. I always mulch them heavily. I'm a dahlia freak!--I know some gardeners think they're gaudy, but I just love them.

Thanks for the email.
I was not a member till you left your
message, so I signed up.
I'm mostly a container garderner, and an assistant to Robin in the yard. Just like in the kitchen.
Hope you are all fine.
