Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Our lady readers may desire to plant some good dahlia roots the coming spring. Here is a good selection of twenty-four varieties, sufficient to form a good beginning for any amateur. In our cool fall months the dahlia is our most showy flower, and we esteem it worthy of a place in every flower garden. By some it is considered too gross and coarse, but it has never appeared so to our tastes. It may lack the delicate beauty of the rose, and also its exquisite fragrance, yet its showy bloom and free, flowering habit, with comeliness of plant, are great arguments in its favor.
