Dahlia 'Rip City'

Rip City Dahlia

Dahlia 'Rip City' features deep cranberry‑to‑burgundy blooms with nearly black centers, held in the informal decorative form-defined by petals that spread in a relaxed, overlapping fashion rather than tightly concentric layers. Its dark, rich petals sit atop strong stems emerging from deep‑green, lush foliage, allowing the flowers to glow with dramatic intensity. Flowering begins in midsummer and continues steadily until the first autumn frosts, offering abundant color across the season.
