Grow Dahlias from Seed 
Dahlias are easily grown from seed and although they 
do not come true to color of the parent many new and 
fine varieties are seedlings. Seed started early in the 
house will bloom the same season. 
Each plant will produce tubers which should be taken 
up in the fall and planted out again the following spring. 
The flowers of seedling dahlias improve each year for 
three or four years.
