Just been out walking the dog and had a ponder on your dilemma Scarlet.
If I had an acre of land where my only intention was to grow dahlias in summer I think I would just treat it as a wild flower meadow by cutting down weeds with lawnmower set on high height and sowing a wildflower mix in spring. I would then just pocket plant the Dahlias through the meadow. Without knowing contours of land and shape of land I am just envisioning half a football pitch?
