122 DAFFODILS NARCISSUS 



MONARCH. Syn: Golden Giant. (C. 20 in. fi$5 ea.) 

 A noble flower, large, of model form, good substance, one 

 of the best of the yellow trumpets. Large trumpet and 

 perianth, both of full rich yellow ; a strong, sturdy grower, 

 flowering in mid-season. Superb for pot and border cul- 

 ture. 



MORNING STAR. (B. $1.50 doz.) An early flowering 

 dwarf variety, with a deep yellow trumpet and a pale 

 yellow perianth. 



MRS. H. J. ELWES. (B. 17 in. $2 doz.) Very early 

 flowering variety with large trumpet. Entire flower soft, 

 clear yellow. 



NANUS. Syn: Nanus Major: Lobularis Neerlandicus. (A. 

 6 in. f $1-50 doz.) Closely similar to Dutch minor, with 

 possibly a trifle larger flower. A very dwarf, extra early 

 flowering variety, blooming with chinodoxas, scillas and 

 crocus, and is a pretty companion for such early flowering 

 bulbs. Yellow trumpet and lighter yellow perianth. In 

 Ireland it is popularly called the Earth Star, "its flowers be- 

 spangle the earth like golden stars." It grows about six 

 inches high, thriving best in partial shade, and is a gem 

 for naturalising and edgings. 



OBVALLARIS. (A. 12 in. t fl 5oc. doz.) The old "Ten- 

 by" daffodil, long popular for its many good qualities. A 

 distinct extra early variety of stiff upright habit. Flow- 

 ers full rich yellow, the trumpet short but well expanded, 

 petals broad and well rounded. It forces well, is excellent 

 in pots and thrives when naturalised in shaded positions. 



OBVALLARIS PALLIDUS. Syn: Buttercup. (A. 12 in. f 

 $i doz.) The pale primrose-coloured form of the Tenby 

 daffodil. Extra early, a beauty in pots, and superb for 

 naturalising in grass. 



OONAH. (B. f$2 doz.) A very early flowering bright 

 canary-yellow self; a new seedling with flowers of lasting 

 quality. A free seeder.
