Excerpt from 1926 Catalogue of Dow's Delightful Dahlias and Glorious Gladioli Location: Any good garden soil will grow dahlias and they will do equally well on high or low land. A sunny, airy location is best. Planting and Cultivation: Good stable man ure ploughed in, in the fall and turned again the following spring makes the ground light. In this locality plant from May 15 to June 15. Dig a hole six inches deep. Lay the bulb flat and cover four inches. Two feet apart in the rows and each row three feet apart is best for proper growth, but if space is limited they can be planted closer.
