Cactus Dahlia. 



DAHLIAS. 



Plant in a sunny situation in strong, deep, rich soil that 

 has been liberally manured. They are gross feeders and 

 succeed best when given plenty of room and an abundant 

 supply of water. Stir the ground frequently about them. 



For large exhibition flowers, only a single stem should 

 be allowed to grow, and that should be pinched back to two 

 pairs of leaves from which four strong branches will grow 

 that are usually stiff enough to support themselves without 

 tying up.
