What is "By Design Dahlias"?
You have found the website for one of New Hampshire's most lovely dahlia farms! Please take a moment to peruse my own photographs of gorgeous dahlias all grown right here on the farm, and arranged by the Dahlia Lady, pictures of the gardens themselves, (maybe the crazy blue haired lady herself) and the vibrant presentation I make at the Norwich Farmer's Market in Norwich, VT. http://www.norwichfarmersmarket.org/
What makes By Design Dahlias different? Well, first, I only sell to New England and NY. That started during Covid when Ag inspections were hard to come by. But I've kept it so to keep my customers close. Customer service is my top priority. I'm proud of my return customer rate, and selling quality tubers that I stand behind is what I want to be known for.

How do I...
If you would like to learn to grow dahlias with similar success, check out my Growing Instructions page, or visit the Contact Info section for where and when I will be giving my next dahlia talk. For a selection of the plumpest, healthiest, hardiest tubers around, you will want my Online Store. The store is currently selling only cut flowers. Many lovely varieties are still available, but tubers will become available once again in Jan/Feb 2027, when I have finished pulling tubers out of storage, inspected them, and selected the best to offer to my customers. You can still see the selection of what I have to offer, just overlook the "Sold Out" label. I tweak the website and build inventory all through the early spring, so check back for not just fewer sold out labels, but new added varieties!! To get yourself on my mailing list, so you can be alerted to the exact date when the inventory goes online, scroll to the bottom of the page and subscribe, or drop me a note in the Contact Info section.

Garden/Store update
2026 has had a tremendous beginning for By Design Dahlias. Piles of sun, just enough rain to get by (could use more) and eager tubers ready to leap out of the ground the moment I put them in!!
I promised myself no more then 12 new varieties this year... I bought 60.
But it worked out, because I lost a whole bag in storage to rot; about 450 tubers, and with it, some varieties entirely.
More cloth pots were added; it's a good way of keeping new varieties isolated, until they can be properly checked for health.
I am hoping for a great showing for the Open House August 23rd.(29th only if it is REALLY raining on the 23rd.) The plants are lovely, and the blooms are popping!!
After 27 years of growing dahlia, and storing tubers, I have it to an art form, and thousands will come available for sale in the spring 2027!!
Get yourself on the email list to catch your favorites.
