Dahlias originated with the Aztecs across a pretty varied swath of Mexico so I think they should grow here. I grew many varieties for years in Oregon, so I am pretty familiar with how to cultivate them. Slugs were a real issue there as was mold and powdery mildew if we had a late wet summer.
Like most people in HPP I have a pretty thin layer of soil over cinders and rock so I just wondered if anyone on Punaweb, who had actual experience with growing them here, had any advice about how much and what kind of organic matter I need to be using for the beds.
