Daliah in pots?
 recommend a variety. Also when would I plant the tuber? I live in North east England. If a pot is not suitable would you be able to recommend a particularly slender one. Thanks for any replys I grow dahlias in pots but only small ones as they are such hungry by cairnsie

Talkback: Seeing double
Many dahlia varieties have just started flowering, while some dwarf bedding varieties have been in bloom for a few weeks. However, it could still take a few weeks for some dahlias to come into flower, especially tall varieties with large blooms by Darren

overwintering
I was led to believe that to overwinter Cosmos Chocamocha you treated them like Dahlia's? I recently potted up last years corm and on inspection today found the corm had rotted. A new corm that I bought this year and potted up at the same time by willowplanter

Drooping Dahlia
A dahlia I have kept inside in it's pot over Winter has been growing away for the last few weeks. As a result it has put on about 4-5 inches of healthy growth. Trouble is the stems are so soft they are drooping, a bit listless and won't stand up by peter straw
