The Rock Run Ashley dahlia is a small, ball-type dahlia known for its soft, neutral “nude” coloring and excellent performance as a cut flower.  Blooms are miniature ball to formal decorative form, about 3–4 inches across.  Color ranges from buff, blush, and dusty rose to salmon-peach and champagne with yellow or cream undertones, often creating a soft ombré from pink to cream.  Plants are shorter, around 2–3 feet tall, but are productive and produce strong stems if pinched early, making them highly valued by floral designers.
