"Dahlia 'American Beauty' 2014, AMB, Informal Decorative, 4.5 ft Perennial (SWI,2008),Z8, B -ID-DR Class(2107) Awards(), R1
Introduced by Swan Island in 2008. Beautiful 6-8” deep velvet red petals that slightly ruffle. No awards listed by ADS as of 2014. My guess is that this dahlia is not a dahlia show favorite. However, it is a knockout in the garden."
