Winter Care of Clumps 
Look roots over early, especially where drought 
and adverse growing conditions prevailed. Trim 
broken necks and decayed portions. Then par- 
tially divide as recommended in Cultural Instruc- 
tions. See ‘Digging and Storing Dahlia Clumps”. 
This early handling will save considerable stock.
