The Garden of p leaf ant Flowers. 



The Place. 

 We haue this in Gardens onely, and haue not heard of his natural! place. 



The Time. 

 It flowreth in Aprill. 



The Names. 



I leaue it indifferent, as I faid, whether you will call it Narctffus angujtifo- 

 /ius, or Ittncifolius magno ca/ice, or maximas, bccaufe it is the greateft of all 

 the reft of that kinde. 



Narcijfus tofus alhus Jiore f/eno Virginianus. 

 The double while Daffodill of Virginia. 



ic roote of this Daffodill, is very like vnto the former fingle Virginia Daffodill, 

 let forth in the tirft place of this ranke of narrow leafed Daffodils, but that it is a little 

 bigger and rounder, being a little long withall, and blackifh alfo on the outfide, as 

 that is : from whence rifeth vp two leaues, fomewhat broader then the former : but of 

 a like greennefle : the ftalke rifeth vp betweene thefe two leaues, about a fpan high, or 

 not much higher, bearing one faire double fnow white flower, very like in the fafhion 

 vnto the pale yellow double Daffodill, or baftard Daffodill of Robinus, hereafter de- 

 fcribed : For it is in the like manner laid open flat, and compofed of fix rowes of 

 leaues, euery rowe lying in order iuft oppofite, or one before another, whereof thofe 

 fix leaues that make the firft or outermoft courfe, are the greateft, and all the reft lying, 

 as I faid, one vpon or before another, are euery rowe fmaller then others from the 

 middle of this flower, thrufteth forth a fmall long pointed forke or home, white as 

 the flower is. 



The Place. 



The place is named to be Virginia, but in what part it is not known to vs. 



The Time. 

 It flowreth in the end of Aprill. 



The Names. 



It may be that this doth grow among the former fingle kinde, and called 

 by the fame name Attamufco, for that the plant is not much differing, yet 

 hereof I am not certaine : But we, from the forme and countenance of the 

 plant, doe call it Narcijjus Virginianus, The Virginian Daffodill, and be- 

 caufe it beareth a double flower, it hath the title of double added vnto it. 



The third order of Daffodils, I faid in the beginning, was of lunctfo/ios, Rufh Daffo- 

 dils, which are now next to be entreated of, I (hall herein keepe the fame order I vfed 

 in the former ; but becaufe I finde none of this order, that beare but one flower vpon a 

 ftalke, I muft begin with thofe that beare many. 



I. Narcffus luncifolius albus. The white lunquilia. 



This white Ruili Daffodill hath fmall long leaues, a little broader, and of a whi- 

 ter greene colour then the ordinary yellow Rufh Daffodils: the ftalke rifeth vp 

 halfe a foote high or more, bearing two or three fmall white flowers vpon a 

 ftalke, yet fomewhat bigger then the common yellow Rufh Daffodill, hauing a 

 fmall round cuppe in the middle, white alfo as the leaues are. The feede is fmall, 



blacke,
