All of the pre-orders have been sent and our website has been loaded with the final tubers available for sale, which are all bagged up and ready for immediate dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best way to keep in the know as to when our 2027 tuber sale will happen is to follow our social media - either through the Greytown Flower Farm or through Greytown Honey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe're slowly adding to our website all of the photos of the varieties we'll have available this season and the pricing so you'll know when the time comes just what you need. Like other years there probably wont be an option to come and purchase tubers from our shop as they do tend to sell pretty quickly online but we'll keep a few for tuber cuttings closer to October that may be available from the physical Greytown Honey store. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to look after Tubers when they arrive: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce your tuber arrives with you - all responsibility is shifted onto you as we can't control the environment you store, grow or keep them in. If you're worried about how a tuber looks when it arrives, be sure to get in touch with us immediately so we can work with you to find a solution. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepending on when they arrive - what they'll love is to be put either straight in the ground, placement is everything when it comes to dahlias so remember - they love lots of sun, hate wet feet and need to be in free draining and they burn in the frosts so make sure they're well protected. If you can't plant them in a spot that meets these requirements pop them into some damp (but not wet) soil in a sheltered spot until you're ready to plant out. \u003c\/p\u003e","image":{"created_at":"2025-03-20T13:00:06+13:00","alt":null,"width":1302,"height":1302,"src":"\/\/greytownhoney.co.nz\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/362236622_3621369624764178_8894487009223704212_n_1.jpg?v=1744675663"}}]
