Try your hand at growing cocoxochitl from seed!

Native to Mexico, Aztecs bred dahlias (which they call cocoxochitl or acocotli) for their edible tubers. At Truelove Seeds, we grow them primarily as cut flowers for our florist friends, though we also conduct regular taste tests to find better tasting specimens. Most people start them from saved and divided tubers and crowns, which nearly guarantees you'll get the same variety again that you started with, as this is a form of cloning. 

Dahlias are EXTREMELY variable when grown from seed! Often, it can take a couple years for you to get your first bloom when starting dahlia seedlings. We tend to get blooms in the first year by feeding them delicious compost and plenty of water. Try your hand at growing the seeds! You may find a beautiful new bloom and/or a large delicious tuber. The main photo on this page shows nine of the seedling dahlias from this year. The other photos are another 18 of the countless parent lines providing seeds for these packages. On social media, please tag #cocoxochitlchingonxs to show us your new dahlia divas when they bloom! Enjoy!

A note on the name, which was born from a lively naming contest on Instagram: cocoxochitl (pronounced "coco-so-cheel") is the original Aztec name for the dahlia, and chingonxs ("chin-gōn-ex-es") is a gender neutral plural term for someone that is very good at something, or freakin' bad-ass, if you will. This part of the name was suggested by Edgar Xochitl, a Chicanx farmer in California focused on queer ecology and decolonizing flowers. Edgar suggests the gender neutral chingonxs because "anyone regardless of gender can be a diva". The second part seems self explanatory. It was inspired by a suggestion by Antonio Amorcito, Mestizx Latinx flower-lover of Washington DC. Angela McGiles, farmer in the Hill Country of Texas shaped it to say "A Dahlia Diva Mix". She suggests that as you find new varieties from your packets, you name each one after a diva. That's up to you! We are going to take the suggestion to heart at Truelove Seeds.

Days to mature tubers: 150

Seeds per pack: 40

Germination rate: 94% on 03/20/2025

Planting / harvesting notes

Start the seeds in a moist potting soil mix, lightly cover them, and keep them moderately moist and warm. Germination should take 7-12 days. When the starts are about an inch tall, pot them up into 3" pots. Transplant them in the garden when they have filled in their pots and after the last danger of frost. Space plants in garden by 18-24". Trellis or stake as the plant grows tall. After the first frost in the fall, cut back the plant to 1-3" above the base of the plant. Lift the tubers carefully and gently (they can spread up to 12" in each direction under the soil). Gently shake off the soil and allow to cure in a cool, ventilated place for a week or so. Cut off broken-necked tubers and small root hairs. We simply store ours in a labeled paper bag, within a cardboard box in a cool, dry basement until spring!

Seed keeping notes

Allow the flowers to die back until brown and crispy. Cut the seed pod (spent flower) at the base and allow it to dry in a dry, ventilated place for another couple weeks. Separate the elongated, plump, black seeds from the papery spent flowers petals. Allow the seeds to dry on a paper towel, sheet, or paper bag in a dry, ventilated place for another week or two before storage.

Works amazingly, but only if you install it correctly.
Material Type: 157mil Closed Cell Foam, Style: 157 mil 36 SqFt
If you purchasing Siless Liner 157 mil (4 mm) Sound Deadening mat, to block unwanted sounds in your car, this is what you need to buy. But wait! It's not the only thing you need to buy if you want to "actually" deaden sound. By itself, it will definitely block a noticeable amount of sound, and, most likely, that's all you realistically need. But... But... If you want the Siless Liner Sound Deadening Mat to really help you take it up a few notches, to get the best sound almost bordering on soundproofing, listen up. You will have to install traditional butyl rubber first. Doesn't have to be the Siless brand, but I'm sure they would love to sell both to you, I used both Killmat (80mil) and Noico (50mil). I have a Honda S2000. It's a two-seater convertible sports car if you don't know what this car is, and it's loud when I'm driving above 60mph. I also happen to have a sound system installed as well. Other than that, the car is stock. I first installed the butyl rubber on the car's interior sheet metal. I went all out and covered everything I could. I didn't need to but I wanted to. I was extremely impressed with the results. But I wanted to go further. Not because I needed to but because just wanted to see what it would be like. So I bought Siless Liner 157 mil (4 mm) 36sqft Sound Deadening mat to go on top of the butyl rubber mats. I put this over every area I installed the butyl rubber. I had to be careful of clearance issues since I added a significant amount of underlayment, and you should too. If you put butyl rubber sound-deadening materials in 50% of the total interior area, you'll hear a noticeable improvement. If you put butyl in about 80% of the total area, you'll be even more amazed at the improvement, compared to before. I originally did all the above myself, so that's my experience and so your mileage may vary. I then installed the Siless Liner Sound Deadening mat over every place I could even going further than I could with the butyl rubber. I used the Siles Liner in areas where butyl rubber would not have been effective, such as the roll bar hoop area and large empty cavities or holes. I covered everything I could, firewall, doors, floor pan, transmission tunnel, trunk, trunk lid, fuel tank area, rear quarter panels, and rear-wheel tunnels, in Siless Liner Sound Deadening Mat. WOW!! The Siless Liner Sound Deadening Mat was the icing on the cake! Let's not forget, this car is a convertible sports car so it will never be a quiet ride, ever. But I can now actually have a conversation with a passenger at a normal-ish volume! This also means I can now have a normal hands-free phone call without having to plug one ear to block out the noise! My sound system sounds so much better! Just by going through the install process, I looked for any vibration, rattle, squeak, and noise-prone areas to either eliminate or reduce unwanted noise production. If you forget this step, the inside and outside of your car will rattle and buzz. I skipped this step the first time around. But did it right before I installed more butyl rubber and the improvement was impressive, especially inside the car. Outside the car, I didn't notice a difference until I put the last layer of Siless Liner Sound Deadening Mat. The sound deadening mat works both ways from what I can tell. If I turned up my music, as loud as I occasionally do, parked in the attached garage to the house, with the garage door closed, I would be barely able to tell the car was playing music in the garage. It sounds like it is another car, just a little bit down the street, with a very loud base. If you stand 20 feet away outside the car, the sound system is noticeable, but not obnoxious by a long shot. Get a 3 piece wood/metal roller set as well, which makes quick work of large areas.
