into a large husky plant that is ready for immediate 
planting upon arrival. Plants will grow and bloom 
as quickly as roots. Also will form nice clumps when 
properly grown. Plants are considerably cheaper than 
roots. A iarge percentage of our customers prefer 
plants to roots. They are guaranteed healthy and true 
to name. 
ROOTED CUTTINGS are well rooted dahlia sprouts, 
before putting in pots to grow plants. You should 
have experience in growing them. Transplant to a 
pot and grow 2 weeks before setting out. Price is 1/3 
less than plant price. This does not include bargain 
collections.
