Description
Plant Dahlia 'Ace Summer Sunset' in early spring, and in midsummer to early fall, it blooms in huge6- to 9-inchflowers dense with vibrant orange petals with sunny yellow highlights. Borne on long, sturdy stems, the highly decorative blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden and make excellent cut flowers.
A Dahlia hybrid, commonly called dahlia, 'Ace Summer Sunset' is a clump-forming perennial with an upright habit. A great container and garden plant, nice in beds and the middle of the border. It makes a stunning specimen, but it's shown to best effect when massed or grouped.
An easy-care plant, 'Ace Summer Sunset' grows best in a sunny to partly shady location with fertile, humus-rich, well-draining soil, protected from strong winds. During the growing season, the plant should be kept consistently moist and never allowed to dry out. Pinching out growing tips encourages a bushy plant. Deadheading spent flowers promotes additional blooms. This plant is not pet friendly.
