WINDLASSIE B-ID-W (Rocky River) One 
of the whitest white dahlias we know. 
Petals are overlaid with a glistening 
sheen. When fully developed, this is 
one of the most ball-shaped flowers in 
this list. Classed as a "B' flower it is 
almost elone in the white informal 
class. Grown to its maximum of nine 
and a half to ten inches it has beaten 
the largest white informals now being 
shown. Flowers cut when they are ap- 
parently "'prime'’ continue to grow in 
water and the back petals close in 
tightly around the stem. In spite of its 
ball-shape it does not bruise easily 
when packed to take to show. An ex- 
cellent variety that has an outstanding 
record of "best bloom" at shows. It 
is an open grower. Size 8x5.
