Do they need to wait until the soil is warm, or plant as soon as it thaws and nights are usually above freezing? Or do they need to be started indoors in pots, then set out like tender annuals?
I almost bought a dozen bedding dahlias at Sam's Club today, but then thought it might be too early. I know they are day-length sensitive; that's why I've never tried starting 'em from seeds (days are long while it's still cold up here)
