GLAMOUR (I. D.) A notable addition to the really large 
dahlias. Everything about the flower suggests size and vigor. 
It is a variety which anyone seems to be able to grow well 
under almost all conditions. The very large flowers are an 
unusual shade of light purple with each petal edged amar- 
anth pink. The petals roll well back giving the flower 
extreme depth. A consistent winner at the best shows in both 
specimen bloom and “‘largest bloom in the show” classes.
