BRUNJES’ SUPERB DAHLIAS 
Although of easy culture, Dahlias should be planted in an open position, where they have plenty of air and receive the full benefit of 
the sun. A deep, rich soil is also necessary. Begin planting early in May and until the latter part of June, placing the roots 3 feet apart and 
4 inches below the surface. As the shoots appear, all but two or three of the strongest should be cut away. 
If wanted by parcel post, add postage at zone rate. Weight, 1 lb. each.
