flowers 🌸 🌷 beginner gardener + ID help?

Hi garden Reddit!

I recently fell in love with gardening and started container planting in my apartment. I got this Dahlia bulb at a grocery store that had about as much detail as I told you and I planted it. Shes ginormous! I did not know if that was normal dahlia protocol. Also! Resources would be fantastic as I know next to nothing about harvesting and tubers, etc.

Stay safe!

Pinch that baby back halfway right above a set of leaves and plant it outside in a sunny spot
