Dahlia Workshop at Natchez Glen House April 19th 3pm

$220 per person | 3 hours | Limited Availability

Get your hands in the soil and prepare for a season of dahlia beauty. Our Dahlia Workshop is a hands-on, immersive experience set right here at Natchez Glen House, designed to guide you through the real work of growing incredible dahlias—before a single bloom appears.

This three-hour workshop focuses on planting and preparing for the months ahead, when dahlias will rise, thrive, and eventually stun in full bloom. You’ll be working in the actual garden, planting alongside me, Steve Mydelski, and learning everything it takes to set dahlias up for their best performance.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to properly plant dahlias for strength and longevity

• Building the ideal soil for healthy, abundant growth

• How and when to prune for maximum flowering and shape

• Understanding dahlia propagation—from tubers to cuttings

• Incorporating dahlias into thoughtful, naturalistic garden designs

• Seasonal maintenance and tips to keep your plants thriving

While the dahlias won’t yet be in bloom, this workshop is about building the foundation—the kind of groundwork that turns tubers into showstoppers.

Each guest will receive two special gifts:
– A curated trio of perennials from our nursery, selected by me based on what’s looking best at the time
– A fresh flower bouquet to take home as a seasonal treat

This is a workshop for gardeners who want to learn by doing. Space is limited to ensure personal attention, time to dig deep, and a true connection to the land and the plants we grow.

Join us at Natchez Glen and plant the beginning of something extraordinary.
