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, fliufify, Chrysanthemum-like form of its flowers 

 make an enchanting spectacle which never fails to at- 

 tract 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.
