They will last longer if, after they are cut, the lower leaves are 
removed and the stems plunged in water as hot as the hand can 
bear. When the water cools, put flowers in a container of cold

Pompon Dahlias 
POMPON DAHLIAS 
Pompon Dahlias have always been favorites with flower lovers 
and dahlia fanciers. These smallest of all dahlias combine so many 
pleasant features that they justly deserve a place in every garden. 
They grow most freely, require little care after planting, and bring 
forth a wealth of blooms, rewarding the grower with a generous 
supply of gorgeous cut flowers during the late summer and fall. 
Plants are of stocky growth, quite branching and extremely free 
flowering. Nice for borders; invaluable for table decoration, as they 
keep in good condition for a long while after cutting.
