DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘AC Big Iron’ features lush, dark-red blooms held in the informal decorative form, defined by relaxed, layered petals that create a full, open flower head. Each blossom has a rich, velvety red tone that intensifies toward the center, creating a deepened core that enhances the flower’s overall depth and richness. Blooms appear in midsummer and continue through the first frosts of autumn, bringing consistent color throughout the season. The layered form and saturated hue lend strong visual impact in garden beds and fresh-cut bouquets, with the bold petals standing out especially well in evening light.

    Dahlias are generally low-maintenance. They do best in well-draining soil and prefer full sun for optimal growth and flowering. Tubers can be planted outside after the last frost. Nourish with a balanced fertilizer once the plants are established.

    Throughout the growing season, provide regular watering, support for tall varieties, and deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms. Harvest blossoms when buds are 3/4 open.
