Dahlias 
The Finest Flower for Fall. 
Dahlias grow from seeds very satisfactorily. Contrary to 
the general belief that the seeds will take a very long time 
to develop into flowering plants, plants grown from seed 
bloom earlier and longer than plants grown from tubers. 
The price of a plant when grown from seed is but a small 
fraction of the price of a tuber. Each year we grow a 
great many plants from seed, and always have an abum 
dance of flowers during a long blooming season. Among 
them we find rare beauties which would match the most 
expensive named sorts. They are so easily grown from 
seed that it would seem unwise to buy tubers, excepting 
where specific rare sorts are wanted with certainty. A pack' 
age of seed will grow enough Dahlias for the average 
flower garden.
