Dahlia 'Irish Red' | Irish Red Dahlia

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Irish Red’ presents deep coral-red blooms in the ball form, where tightly layered petals curve inward to create smooth, almost perfectly spherical heads. The color is full and rich, radiating from midsummer through to the first frosts of autumn and offering a dependable late‑season display. Each flower opens in saturated red tones that subtly deepen toward the center. The clean, rounded spheres maintain their shape well in bouquets or garden settings, and the overall effect brings refined drama and richness to borders or cutting arrangements.

    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.
