 DAHLIA 



A favorite for autumn flowering, blooming the 

 first season from seed if started early. The flowers 

 are so symmetrical and perfect and the range of 

 colors so wide and varied that they will always be 

 popular where display is wanted. 

 Seed may be sown in spring in open ground after 

 danger of frost is over, but for best results sow 

 in shallow pots or boxes at any time from March 

 to June, and transplant the seedlings to small 

 pots. When strong enough and danger from frost 

 is over plant out one foot apart. These plants 

 will produce tubers which should be taken up in 

 the fall and replanted the following spring; these 

 roots will flower freely the following autumn. 

 Tender herbaceous perennial, 3 to 4 feet high.

Dianthus 



DIANTHUS 



The Dianthus may be divided into two classes, 1st, 

 Carnations, which are striped or ribboned out- 

 wards. 2d, Picotees which are edged or feathered 

 inwards, generally smaller and hardier and of a 

 greater range of colors. These old favorites are 

 still as popular as ever. Rich soil will make 

 bright flowers. Most of the varieties are fragrant. 



I In the open garden some bloom the first Autumn ; 



5 all bloom the second season.
