DWARF DAHLIAS 
A wonderful new race of dahlias which are par- 
ticularly adapted for landscape planting in beds or 
borders that have attracted much attention in our 
Trial Grounds. They start blooming early in the 
summer when only about one foot high and bloom 
continuously until frost, growing to about two feet in 
height, except where heights are noted. These dwarf 
dahlias are very useful for forcing in pots indoors. 
EASTER GREETING, SC, Bloom 4 x 11%. This 
is the original variety of this type and may be 
grown in pots as a blooming plant and is useful as 
a cut flower. White with a creamy cast.

FRED SPRINGER, FD, Bloom 6 x 3, Bush 2I4 ft.

ieties but a rich scarlet in color with bright green 
fern-like foliage which is very effective in mass 
plantings. Roots, .35 
GERDA, ID, Bloom 4 x 2. Deep violet rose, which 
is a decided acquisition to the Dwarf class. Flowers

JULES BUYSSENS, M P, Bloom 2!4 x 1. Flowers 
yellowish buff suffused red. Foliage very dark. To

KATE, FD, Bloom 4 x 2, Bush 1/4 ft. A bright 
cardinal red which makes a striking variety used 
in mass plantings. Blooms are attractive, uniform,

DAHLIAS THAT FIT IN YOUR GARDEN 
The following list includes both large and small 
varieties that we recommend for landscape plantings. 
Bushes are dwarf yet produce a mass of color through 
the entire season. Suitable for borders or special 
groups in the garden. Especially useful as specimen 
plants with background of evergreens or similar ma- 
terial. These varieties may also be used for cut 
flowers. 
Garden lovers are ever on the alert for new ideas, 
and such progressive efforts are to be applauded. 
We heartily recommend a trial of the smaller growing 
dahlias listed below for landscape effects. Why not 
be one of the leaders in using these free blooming 
dahlias to produce unusually beautiful effects?
