{"product_id":"ac-cowlitz-fall","title":"AC Cowlitz - Fall","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAC Cowlitz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is one of those dahlias that brings a little drama with it every time you walk through the field. The blooms are large, full and deeply colored, landing somewhere between a rich reddish-purple and dark wine depending on the light. It is a color that feels especially beautiful as summer begins to lean toward fall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe informal decorative petals give each bloom plenty of movement, so even at around 8 inches across, the flowers never feel stiff or overly formal. They have a lush, almost billowy quality that makes them wonderful statement blooms in the vase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor market bouquets, AC Cowlitz is the flower I use when I want to take a bunch from pretty to memorable. One bloom can provide all the focal power you need, surrounded by smaller dahlias, textural flowers and greenery. Florists also love flowers with this kind of scale because they can build a design around just a few exceptional stems.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt really shines in wedding work, particularly in late-summer and fall palettes. I love pairing it with dusty rose, blush, burgundy, mauve, antique pink and even softer peach tones. The dark coloring grounds an arrangement and gives lighter flowers something to play against, while its loose petal structure keeps the overall look romantic rather than heavy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe plants themselves are vigorous and sturdy, reaching around 5½ feet, and they are known for producing an impressive number of blooms for a large-flowered variety. That combination of size, color and production is exactly what makes a variety valuable in a working flower field.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAC Cowlitz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is for the gardener who wants a dahlia with real presence—\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003edeep moody color, big expressive blooms and enough personality to completely change the feel of a bouquet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloom Color:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Deep Reddish-Purple \/ Dark Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloom Form:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Informal Decorative\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloom Size:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e B — Approximately 8 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Height:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Approximately 5½ feet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBest For:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Statement bouquets, wedding work, florist orders, cutting gardens \u0026amp; exhibition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"At Home Organics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67252574879917,"sku":"F-ACOW","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0665\/1982\/6605\/files\/IMG_5738.jpg?v=1792247650","url":"https:\/\/athomeorganics.com\/products\/ac-cowlitz-fall","provider":"At Home Organics ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
