What soil should I buy to use to plant dahlia tubers in pots?

Expert Response

Hi Pat,  Any good potting soil is fine.  There are fancy soil mixes but I have found ordinary potting soil works fine. (Don’t use garden soil.) They do best in larger pots.  See the following website for more technical information.
