Salmon Runner is a rich, sunset‑toned decorative dahlia, with full, rounded blooms that blend salmon, coral, and soft rose in a velvety wash of color. Each flower feels like a little evening sky—glowing but not harsh—and the plants are generous, medium‑tall workhorses that keep sending up long, straight stems all season.
Height: About 3–4 feet
Bloom size: Typically 4–6 inches
Form: Formal decorative; fully double blooms with broad, overlapping petals and a classic outline
Color: True salmon—sitting between pink and coral—with warmer, slightly deeper tones toward the center
Vigor: Dependable midseason bloomer with a strong, steady flush of flowers and good tuber production
Stem strength: Upright, sturdy stems that hold blooms well for cutting and transport
Special notes: Salmon Runner’s color is flattering in almost any palette—soft enough for romantic work, but saturated enough to carry brighter summer designs.
Why you need this variety:
If you love warm, modern salmon tones and need a reliable producer, Salmon Runner gives you armfuls of designer‑worthy blooms without fuss—equally at home in a working cutting garden and a collector’s display.
