A smoky coral dream that catches the light just right.
The Dahlia ‘Salmon Runner’ is a true showpiece in the garden, producing sprays of velvety blooms in a rich blend of smoky coral and raspberry tones. Each petal is softly brushed with lighter edges, creating a subtle ombré effect that feels both romantic and painterly. Medium in size but full of personality, this variety is a favourite among floral designers for its depth of colour and graceful form.
Thriving in full sun, ‘Salmon Runner’ delivers a steady succession of blooms throughout the season, each one begging to be cut and brought indoors. Its reliable growth and refined colour make it a must-have for those who love flowers that feel timeless yet unexpected.
Because colour this good deserves a front-row spot in the garden.

Harvesting & Vase Life:
Harvest when blooms are three-quarters open. Dahlias will not continue to open after cutting, so choose flowers with firm, lush petals and avoid those that feel papery or dry. To extend vase life, place stems in warm water with hydrator or sear the ends in 160°F to 180°F water, allowing them to cool for one hour. Expect an average vase life of 5 days.
A bloom that turns every bouquet into a small work of art.
