SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. 
DAHLIAS 
CULTURAL DIRECTIONS 
Although Dahlias are easily grown in any good garden soil they respond readily to good cultivation. Prepare the soil 
by digging 12 to 18 inches deep and working in a moderate amount of well rotted manure or commercial fertilizer. Plant 
the bulbs 2 l / 2 to 3 feet apart at a depth of 5 or 6 inches. Give them just enough water when above ground to keep them 
growing slowly. Apply fertilizers and water in quantities only after the plant commences to bud. Dahlias may be planted 
from March to July, preferably in May. 
Prices are prepaid anywhere within the fourth zone.
