Ordering dahlia tubers through Fox Cottage Farm was incredibly easy! Shannon made everything seamless—from her organized ordering process to offering convenient local pickup. The tubers arrived beautifully packaged, individually wrapped, and clearly labeled. I’m so excited to see these beauties bloom this summer! Highly recommend purchasing from Fox Cottage Farm.
It was an absolute delight purchasing dahlia tubers from Shannon at Fox Cottage Farm. Her prices were very reasonable and I found her catalog of available tubers extensive. She was so quick to respond to my questions and she made picking them up super easy. Her packaging of the tubers went above and beyond my expectations - very impressive! I'm already looking forward to next year's dahlia garden and I will definitely purchase tubers from Shannon again!
I first saw Shannon’s impressive dahlia collection in full bloom this summer at a local cidery, and I was absolutely blown away. It’s clear that Shannon puts so much time and effort into caring for her dahlias, and the love she pours into the process, ensuring you’re getting high-quality tubers. My order was carefully packaged, beautifully labeled, and perfectly prepared for storage. I can't wait to see these beauties come to life in my own garden. I wholeheartedly recommend Shannon for her excellent customer service, her passion for growing, and the reliable, healthy dahlias she provides.
We bought tubers from Fox Cottage Farms this year and are so glad we did! Shannon did a great job communicating with us and shipped quickly. The tubers came in perfectly packaged and we can’t wait to see the beautiful blooms they give us next year! We also appreciated fall shipping, as many tuber sellers haven’t been able to ship yet. This allows us to get our plants started a bit sooner, which is perfect for our Florida growing season. Thank you for being an awesome supplier!
