DAHLIAS 



The Best All-Season Flower in the World 



Dahlias will start blossoming' six to eight weeks after plant- 

 ing, and keep on blooming until killed by frost. From some 

 varieties you can cut as many as two hundred blossoms from 

 a single bulb. Your choice in form and coloring is almost 

 unlimited.
