Dahlia 'AC Ben'
Dahlia 'AC Ben'
 
This giant semi-cactus dahlia with 10-inch+ blooms is a statement piece for any dahlia collection. AC Ben performs amazingly all season long, especially for such a large bloomer!   This dahlia is a sunset all on its own, with warm ombre shades of peach, coral, and buttery yellow.
 
AC dahlias are hybridized by Ken Greenway of Accent Dahlias in Snohomish, Washington.
 
Grow in fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil, enriched with organic matter and general purpose fertilizer, in full sun. Pinch out growing tips to encourage bushy plants and stake if required. Water freely in dry periods. Introduced in 2010.
