MINIATURE DAHLIAS 
CULTURE—Miniature dahlias need no disbudding, 
very little pruning and can be planted rather close. 
They are suitable for landscaping in borders, hedges 
and mass plantings. They should not be heavily fer- 
tilized or overwatered, but grown rather poor the 
same as Pompons. Fine for home arrangements.
