Step 1 – CHECK OUR LISTS
Check out our wish list and our varieties available for trade. 

If you've got some varieties to trade that aren't on our wish list, ask us if we'd like them anyway! We just might. There are thousands out there, and we simply haven't discovered them all yet.

​
 

Step 2 – MAKE A DEAL
Email us what you have available for trade and what you’d like in return. This year we will have a (10) tuber minimum (ten tubers traded for ten tubers). No maximum, though. We love big swaps!

​

Note: we are trading individual, pre-divided tubers with at least one visible eye per tuber, not clumps.

Step 3 – CONFIRM TRADE IN SPRING
We will email you in the spring just before shipping time to finalize our swap. This is the time to let us know if any of your tubers you had set aside to trade with us did not make it through the winter.

Once the trade is finalized, it's on to shipping!

Step 4 – SHIP
All our swaps will go out during our FIRST shipping window (April 17-28). Please ship your tubers to us during this timeframe as well (see FAQs for a few exceptions).
 

Please clearly mark each tuber and pack them safely. If you've never done this before, don't worry. We'll send you instructions for a few easy and inexpensive shipping options to make sure your tubers make it to us safely.

Step 5 – PLANT YOUR DAHLIAS!
That's it! It's really a lot of fun swapping dahlias. It's one of our favorite ways to get new breeds into our collection, and we think you'll love it, too.
