CULTURE 
TIME—Dahlias should be planted after danger of frost has passed 
and the ground feels warm to the hand. It usually takes about 
90 days from the time you plant until the first bloom, so, if you 
wish to plant for shows, you can plant accordingly. 
PLANTING SEED —In a flat, or a box 4 inches deep and 20 inches 
square, place a sifted mixture of equal parts of garden loam, leaf 
mold and sand. Smooth this mixture off flat then press firmly, 
especially in the corners. Surface of compost should be 1 inch bo- 
low lip of box. Place seed about an inch apart and % inch deep 
in rows 2 inches apart. Cover seed, press firmly, then water 
thoroughly. Be sure that your box has drainage holes in the bot- 
tom so that excess water may run out. Seed usually germinates 
in 4 to 14 days. When the second set of leaves appear, transplant 
to a similar box, 2 inches apart. When new growth is’ well in 
evidence, remove plants and plant in the field. Do not let them 
dry out. 
We, here at Boulder Hill, have had the best results with planting 
seed in Vermiculite, using it straight, with no other mixture with it.
