Somewhat similar are Odorus Calathinus 

 and Interjectus. 



Var. MINOR. Dwarf variety, with much 

 smaller crown than any other form. 



Var. LCETUS (Trilobus). Flowers smaller 

 than Campernelli. Segments half as long again 

 as the corona, which is much lobed. 



Heminalis, a very distinct form, with 

 long cup of darker yellow than the seg-

(4) 1NCOMPARABILIS. Wild over a con- 

 siderable range from Spain and S.W. France to the 

 Tyrol. Very ancient hybrid (Pseudo - Narcissus x 

 Poeticus) once reckoned as a species. But Dean 

 Herbert raised a plant indistinguishable from it 

 from the wild Yorkshire Pseudo-Narcissus x Poeticus, 

 and many similar proofs have since been given. 

 Leaves bluish - green ; one flowered. Expanded 

 flower, pale yellow in the type. Perianth segments 

 spreading, slightly imbricated, about one and one- 

 eighth inch long, being about twice as long as the 

 crown. 



The garden forms are very many and 

 very various. 



Concolor, segments and corona pale 

 lemon - yellow. Of this class there are 

 several fine garden varieties. 



Semi-partitus differs from Concolor in the 

 very deep lobing of its cup. 



Albus plenus sulphureus (" Sulphur 

 Phoenix," or " Codlins and Cream") is 

 the supposed double form of Semi- 

 partitus. 



Var. AURANTIUS. Perianth pale yellow ; 

 corona, yellow orange-stained. 



Aurantius plenus (" Golden Phoenix,"
