Occasionally a dahlia from another locality will 
not respond to its best when planted in a new 
climate. Save this one and plant again the 
following season when it very likely will be 
greatly improved. 




The size of the Dahlia root makes no difference with 
the growing plant. Small ones produce as well as 
large, many times better.
