Dahlia tenuicaulis (everblooming tree Dahlia) 2 feet (3 cuttings): Giveaway

I basically just cut my sister's Dahlia tenuicaulis to the ground. It needed a little (or a lot) of pruning and rejuvenation. This is a moderately fragrant, magenta-flowered plant, which tends to be bushier than Dahlia imperialis. It also tends to bloom more year round, instead of just November/December.

One of the members of this forum is getting the bulk of the cuttings to use for a school propagation project. But I'll offer the cutting below for whomever is interested, and by random draw on Sunday if there is more than one person interested. I can send this for postage, which might vary a little depending on whether the cutting is chopped up and how it's sent, but $7.15 or less.



And here are the plants at the SF Botanical Garden, probably 10-15 feet tall:



The cutting can be chopped up into three 2-node pieces, which root easily in perlite, also perlite-rich soil.
 
Wow that's pretty and that's great your giving the bulk to a member using them for a school project learning to prop is great knowledge for plant lovers - :) i think that's really great of you! And wanna say goodluck to the lucky one who has the room to grow this as big as yr sisters (and the one pictured) :) goodluck i wish i could enter but i don't have a garden or funds to pay shipping so goodluck to everyone who can!
