Dingee Dahlias 
The splendid qualities and gorgeous beauty of the present-day 
Dahlia have won for it a place at the head of the most important 
garden plants. None are easier to grow, respond more readily to 
care and attention, or flower more freely. Few cultivated plants 
have a wider range of color. The brilliant shades and the free, 
fluffy, Chrysanthemum-like form of its flowers make an enchanting 
spectacle which never fails to attract attention. Plant soon as 
ground is warm in a moderately rich soil, covering the tubers six 
inches deep. Thin to one or two shoots. Cultivate well until it 
begins to bloom; after that stir only the surface soil just enough to 
prevent a crust forming.
