JESSIE L. SEAL CATALOGUE — 1935 
HAVE YOU EVER TRIED GROWING 
OUR CALIFORNIA DAHLIA SEED? 
Mrs. Alfred B. Seal, 
from our seeds 
Undoubtedly one of the most fascinating phases 
of dahlia culture is the origination of new varieties 
from seed and the real thrill in growing dahlias is 
producing new varieties. Growing dahlias from 
seed is a lottery but it is a great sport and you may be the lucky winner of 
some fine new dahlias and to know the joy of having a seedling patch. 
We would advise for best results for general purposes, Collections A or B, 
as they are made up of specially selected varieties from the most famous 
novelties and can be planted from March 1st to May 1st, and to May 15th in 
a frostless belt.

A customer in Canada wrote: “Every seed I planted grew and 85% of them 
were doubles—principally decorative, some cactus, some of them went as 
large as 13 and 14 inches across. In fact, they are the finest I ever grew. They 
were gorgeous!”
