Hands-On Dahlia Cuttings Masterclass
When: Saturday, 5 September 2026 | 10:00am – 12:00pm
Where: Lilydale Lake Community Rooms (435 Swansea Road, Lilydale)
Come spend the morning with me learning the absolute art of making dahlia cuttings! We’ll cover everything from the basic technique to troubleshooting the tricky bits.
Why September? This is the absolute sweet spot of the year. It’s right when spring hits and your own tubers at home will just be starting to wake up from their winter nap. By doing the class now, you can take what you learn and immediately put it into practice on your own patch, giving you the best chance to multiply your stock right when the weather is working with you. Plus, doing it now means you don't have to worry about babying fragile little cuttings through the freezing winter months!
Whether you’ve never tried propagating before or you just want to boost your success rate, this is an intimate, cozy little class designed to give you the confidence to go home and multiply your own patch.
What’s Included:
- The Full Setup: Every single bit of gear you need to get started doing cuttings at home.
- Hands-on Practice: We’ll be doing it together, step-by-step, with me right there to guide your snips.
- My Secret Sauce: You'll get a copy of my exclusive cutting guide, including the exact steps I use to get a super high success rate.
- Morning Tea: A proper cuppa and something delicious to eat while we chat all things flowers.
- The Good Stuff: You’ll get to take home 6 "unicorn" cuttings that we make in the class to plant out in your own garden.
A quick bit of cutting magic: If you're worried these little green shoots won't perform like traditional tubers, don't be! These guys will grow rapidly, bloom their absolute heads off all summer, and make a beautiful, full clump of brand-new tubers underground for you to dig up by winter. All in a single season.
Spots are strictly limited because I want to make sure everyone gets plenty of one-on-one time, so secure yours now.
