Description
One of the best black red dahlias. ‘Rip City’ has a stunning burgundy red flower with nice stems for cutting. Large 6″- 8″ blooms.
Growers Notes:
- Dahlias are planted in spring after the soil has warmed up to 60 degrees
- Plant when night time temperatures are consistently in the 50’s
- Plant around the same time you would plant corn, potatoes and other warm season crops
- Plant dahlia tubers in an area that receives 6-8 hours of sunlight per day
- No extra water until sprout is 5”-6” tall, normal spring rains will give all the moisture it needs
- After the dahlia sprout is 6”, deep soak every 2-3 days
