Refund Policy
Dahlia Seeds: All sales are final on dahlia seeds. No refunds or returns.
Dahlia tubers come in all shapes and sizes. All dahlia tubers purchased from us will will be shipped with at least one visible eye. All tubers are sold as a single tuber with a visible eye. You will receive one tuber and not a clump like you may see at big box stores where the tubers come from overseas. Occasionally, I may send a small cluster of two tuber. Most U.S. dahlia growers sell dahlia tubers as a single tuber with a visible eye. I do pre-sprout my tubers. I bring them out of winter storage at least 4 weeks prior to shipping. The dahlia tubers are packed in bags with peat moss and/or vermiculite with a label on the bag.
All orders will begin shipping in late March and early April, or after the danger of frost has passed, via USPS Priority Mail.
We try our best to ensure that your tuber is true to the dahlia variety; however, we are human so a mistake can happen. If this happens, please contact me at mygardenbee@gmail.com. I cannot fix the problem if I do not know about it. Our replacement policy is limited to the purchase price of the tubers only and shipping costs are nonrefundable.
Keep your dahlia tubers in a cool, dark place until you are able to plant. Dahlias are planted after your last frost and when the soil temperature is around 60 degrees which is usually is mid April through May or June in most areas. I am in plant hardiness zone 7 so I start planting mine in late April to early May. If you can plant your tomatoes, peppers, and/or basil, then you should be able to plant your dahlia tubers.
Certified NC Nursery: We are a certified NC nursery, and we are inspected by the NC Department of Agriculture yearly.
Dahlia Virus: Viruses are a concern with everyone. I follow what the American Dahlia Society recommends. I disinfect my tools with a 10% bleach solution or Virkon S disinfectant every time I use my tools between each dahlia plant. If a dahlia looks strange, odd, or weak, I remove the dahlia from my dahlia field. I try to be as organic as possible with my pest management program. I do spray every 2 to 3 weeks during the early growing season if necessary to help keep pests under control before the dahlias start to bloom. I have tried some home testing; however, it can be very expensive and not feasible to test all your dahlias. I do the best I can to have a “clean” garden. In your own garden, thrips can fly into your garden and transmit viruses to your dahlia garden. I cannot be responsible for virus. It is up to you to inspect your dahlia plants regularly for thrips and other pests and use appropriate pest control methods. Also, you must disinfect your tools to prevent spreading viruses between dahlias. If you suspect a virus on a dahlia, remove and throw the plant away in the trash not your compost pile.
