MINIATURE DAHLIAS 
The popularity of the smaller types of Dahlias is most rapidly in¬ 
creasing. More people are learning their usefulness for beds and 
borders, and their size particularly adapt them for table and other 
indoor decorations. Their freedom of bloom insure an abundant supply 
of flowers from early to late.

pure garnet. Roots $ .50

TEDDY .JOHNSON. This has been mentioned as Ball type, but inas¬ 
much as it grows only about three inches in diameter we think it 
more properly fits into the new Miniature section, which_Js so fast 
becoming popular. It is extremely free in flowering, and it makes 
a r :pid compact growth which is ideal for a solid bed or border. 
We also find it very useful for decoration. The color is soft rose 
p'nk decidedly shaded white. Why not try a dozen for a border or to 
cover an unsightly fence? 
Roots $ .50 each Per dozen $5.00 
THE SENTINEL. Min. Dec. 1933 introduction. Ox-blood red about 
2% inches in diameter. Very free flowering and a long keeper 
when cut. Roots $ .75 Plants $ .50 
DAHLIA SEED 
The growing of Dahlias from seed is very fascinating, for you never 
know what a seed will produce and each plant is a new variety. The 
seed should be planted in the house or a cold frame during late March 
or early April and transplanted to the garden when the weather is 
suitable, usually about the middle of May. We have a limited amount 
of our own seed which we can supply at $1.00 per package of about 
100 seed. 
DAHLIA LABELS. 2^/l>-inch copper wired, painted one side. The name 
as we use in our own garden. Not postpaid unless shipped with a 
root order. 
$ .25 per 50 $ .40 per 100 $2.85 per 1,000
