All Dahlias Are Not Alike! 
There is a big difference in Dahlias, just as in 
merchandise. It is well known that ZANT’S 
DAHLIAS are of the Very Highest in Quality, 
We grow our Plants in 3-inch Clay Pots. Because 
we’ve proved they grow better and more uniform 
plants. The Clay Pots are porous, which aerates 
the soil. As the plant grows we space the pots 
farther apart and as they are grown in a separate 
cool greenhouse, they spread out in size and make 
a short, husky plant easy to ship and transplant 
in your garden without any fuss or loss. 
There are still a few growers who advertise 
grown in wood bands, it’s true they hold a little 
more soil but you are buying plants, not soil. These 
wood bands are packed closely in wood flats hold¬ 
ing about 24 plants, they cannot be spaced as they 
grow so just have to grow tall, all but the outside 
row is shaded too much. We used these bands 10 
to 15 years ago, but discarded them because center 
plants grow tall and spindling. If wood bands grew 
better plants than clay pots we would still be using 
them, as it’s much less work handling a flat of 
24 plants at one time than each plant singly as we 
have to do. But our aim is too grow the best plant 
possible for our customers. 
Zant’s Dahlia Plants are famous from Coast to 
Coast — and we can refer you to satisfied cus¬ 
tomers in nearly every state.
