DAHLIA. 



DAHLIAS, 



DOUBLE DAISIES. 



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.

 varieties can be sown outdoors during April and May. The Gomphrena should be sown in boxes in the house or in hot-beds,
