     We made some major improvements to the farm this year, including a brand new dahlia tuber storage room with power and water!! (BIG thank you to Steve and Lynn Nisco). This is very exciting for us! Last season, I stored the tubers in a root cellar, which I found out the hard way, was anything but ideal. The root cellar had big temperature swings that went unnoticed and with no power to that area, it was difficult to combat. The new tuber storage room keeps the temperature at a perfect 42 degrees with the exact humidity necessary to keep the tubers in a nice dominant state overwinter. The '24 over-wintering season, we only lost 2 varieties!!! This is a HUGE improvement from the previous seasons!! We are extremely excited for this new investment.

   Also, we increased our dahlia patch by a half an acre. We took down trees, hand picked (too many) rocks, dug trenches, laid waterlines, and put in a new drip system. We laid 3-4 inches of fresh compost and the appropriate soil amendments to allow our dahlias the space and nutrients they needed! 

   Varieties are sold as ONE tuber. 

   We do have some varieties marked for LIMIT ONE only this year. Please respect that.  You will not be reimbursed if you attempt to order multiple.

Dahlia Tuber Shipping: Please note, we will only be shipping within the US (excluding our HI friends - sorry!) at this time. We will be shipping tubers in early April, depending on the forecast. We will have a flat shipping rate of $12.00. 

Farm Pick-up: Yes! You can choose to have your orders picked up at the roadside stand. If you select farm pickup, we will reach out to you to confirm pickup dates and times.

Cart: An item placed in your cart will not guarantee your purchase until you checkout and receive an order confirmation number. Gentle reminder, we are a small scale dahlia farm, therefore small quantities of tubers are available for most varieties. Please respect the ONE LIMIT varieties.

Combining Orders: We truly apologize for the inconvenience, but due to the volume of orders that we receive we are not able to combine orders or combine shipping on multiple orders that are placed. 

Viruses: While our tubers are small and growing, we discard any we suspect of having disease based off plant habit/growth patterns. During the cut flower season, we carry around a bucket of bleach water and sanitize between each plants. We are not a U-pick farm. We've learned a ton about pest control, and although, we are an organic farm, we do not spray any harmful pesticides or insecticides on our dahlias; we do use beneficial insects & the Brix sugar score to maintain healthy crops. Then at the end of the season, the crop is inspected by the WA Dept of Ag.

Imports: ZERO precent of our stock are imports. This year some parts of our  new field had hard soil in it, and some plants produced smaller "clumps." To ensure an eye, we're selling one tuber as one clump. That being said, they were grown on our farm, hand harvested by myself and my husband.

 Please inspect your tubers upon arrival and contact us at BloomingHearts.Wa@gmail.com within 1 week of your order arriving if you have any concerns. If for some reason you are not satisfied with your order, please reach out and we will try to work with you to make it right.

Again, I want you to be happy with your purchase. 

Please reach out with any further questions/concerns.
