Cactus Dahlia 
Dahlias 
Dahlias can, be grown in any good soil but they will succeed best in 
an open sunny location. Plant when ground is warm and all danger of 
frost is past. Plant the bulbs 3 inches deep, laying the tuber on its 
side. Keep soil loose and mellow by frequent hoeing, drawing the soil 
to a slight hillock around the plants. 3 feet by 3 feet is about the 
proper distance to plant apart. After frost has killed the top, dig the 
tubers carefully; remove the soil from the roots and store in box or 
barrel secure from frost. As a precaution it is well to cover the tubers, 
so stored, with sand, leaves or moss. All clumps should be divided 
into several pieces before being reset the following spring. 
The “Decorative” types ar’e characterized by gracefully formed 
flowers of large size with broad petals, being intermediate in form 
between the compact “Ball’ sorts, which are nearly round, and the 
“Cactus” varieties, which have loosely formed blossoms with long 
twisted petals. 
The Peony-Flowered are of large size, with broad petals, artistically 
curled and twisted.
