CHAPPAQUA DAHLIA GARDENS 
IF YOU WANT A THRILL 
Grow Dahlias from seed. This is the way all new Dahlias are origi¬ 
nated. Dahlias grown from seed will flower the first season. It is the 
most fascinating phase of Dahlia culture. Every seedling will be dif¬ 
ferent, each a new variety. If you get good seed it is just as easy as 
raising Dahlias from plants. The seed we offer is well ripened and 
hand picked from strong, healthy bushes of the newest and best exhibi¬ 
tion varieties. It is grown in a locality that is free from singles, pom¬ 
pons, and other small types, and therefore should produce a good per¬ 
centage of large double flowers. Don’t waste your time with cheap seeds.
