One of the finest plantings at our Nursery Gar- 
dens is the bed of Dwarf Double Hybrid 
Dahlias. They begin blooming in July and con- 
tinue until late fall. Sometimes when they seem 
about finished we cut them back one-half, then 
they start new growth and bloom again. Of 
course, they are tender and will be finished by 
the first frost.
