DAHLIAS 
Most flower lovers plant Dahlia Roots as 
they do not know that beautiful blooms can 
be successfully produced the same season from 
seed. There is real fascination in growing 
Dahlias from seed, as new varieties are ori- 
ginated in this manner. 
WALLER-FRANKLIN DWARF HYBRIDS— 
We believe this to be the best strain of dwarf 
Dahlia obtainable. Few of the very double 
blooms measure less than three inches. Twelve 
inch stems are profusely borne the first year 
from seed on bushy plants 18 to 24 inches tall. 
Some of the lovely new colors are: Shades of 
canary yellow, scarlet, terra cotta, apricot, 
crimson, lavender-pink, purple, maroon, buff, 
cream, and white. This is truly a perfected 
flower. Pkt. 10c; % oz. 75c; oz. $2.75.
