Stellar · 4.5–5"OrangeBill Bonneywell (Snoho Dahlias) (1998)United States

Snoho Skip opens medium-size heads in a clean, saturated pumpkin-orange, with petals that reflex and fold back into a pinwheel shape that catches light from every angle. Bill Bonneywell introduced it in 1998 as part of the Snoho line he built over decades in Snohomish County, Washington. The consistent color holds through the season without fading to peachy tones the way lighter orange varieties often do, and the heads stay tight on the stem long after cutting. It was bred in United States by Bill Bonneywell (Snoho Dahlias) in 1998.

Growing Snoho Skip

Pinch when the stem reaches about a foot tall to encourage branching and more cutting stems through the season. Stake at planting because the heads size up to medium and can pull wiry stems forward in wind. Cut in the cool of early morning when the outer petals have reflexed fully, since buds taken too tight on this form rarely finish opening in water. Feed lightly and keep soil moisture consistent through the hottest weeks to hold stem length and color intensity.

Spacing: Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking: Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
