GIANT EXHIBITION DECORATIVE DAHLIAS 
This flower has been so much improved in recent years that no 
garden seems complete without it. Especially is this true of the 
type known as Decorative Dahlias. 
Culture: They do best in rich soil and plenty of sun, but will 
grow in any good garden soil, and in almost any location except¬ 
ing one very shady. The bulbs or tubers should be planted from 
the last of April to the flrst of June, about 4 inches deep and 30 
inches apart. An inch-square stake, 6 to 7 feet long, should be 
stuck a foot into the ground when the roots are planted, and the 
plants tied to it when about 2 feet high.
