Please join Kate Cahill at the Beatrix Farrand Garden at Bellefield for an introduction to growing dahlias -- from soil preparation, planting and staking to seasonal care, pest management, tuber digging and more. This talk also explores the rich local history of dahlias in Dutchess County, where enthusiasts helped shape America’s early dahlia tradition. Ideal for both new and experienced gardeners, this program blends practical guidance with our regional horticultural heritage.
