EVERETT & GLEASON’S 
DAHLIA —DOUBLE FLOWERING, 
Of summer flowering plants the Dahlia is one of the best, and justly termed the 
glory of the autumn garden. Being tender, the planting should be deferred until 
tho weather has become settled and warm in spring, and the roots taken up before 
frosts set in, in autumn. The varieties are divided into three classes. The “ Shoiv 
and “ Fancy ” arc large-flowering, and the plants vary in height from three to six 
feet. Tlie " Bmlquet," “Lilliputian," or “ Pompon ” have very small flowers, and 
are suitable for bouquets, hence the name. They are often very erroneously termed 
« Dwarf,” which leads, at times, to much disappointment, as the plants vary from 
three to six or more feet in height. Dwarf Dahlias are distinct from either of the 
preceding. The flowers are as large as the show varieties, hut the plants are very 
stocky and short-jointed, and seldom exceed two or two and a half feet in height. 
Of this class (strictly true) there are as yet but very few colors. '
