DAHLIA. 



Bloom from Seed the First Season. 



Nothing can be more effective than a bed of Dahlias or 

 a few individual plants of them placed around borders. By 

 sowing- early in spring and afterwards transplanting, they 

 can be had in flower the same season. The single and 

 Cactus varieties are valuable for decorative work in vases, 

 etc. H. H. P.
