I'm looking for ideas on staking tall dahlias, the long-stemmed ones that
run 4-6 ft., perfect for cutflowers.

I've used many of the cheap home center wire "tomato" cages because they
offer nested storage. But as you know, the dahlias easily outgrow the
cages, and I end up needing to add stakes.

Does some kind of tall stake and twine weave work, like with tomatoes?

Thanks for your help.
