130 DAFFODILS NARCISSUS 



MOSCHATUS. (A. 6 in. t$4 hu.) A wild sub-species of 

 N. Pseudo-Narcissus found in the Pyrenees and especially 

 plentiful in places on the Spanish side of these mountains. 

 It varies in size, form and colour accordingly as influenced 

 by natural hybridisation when growing in proximity to 

 other native types. In its purest form it is of dwarf habit 

 with rather small flowers. The whitest of all trumpet 

 daffodils when fully open, but of a sulphur tinge in the 

 bud and expanding stages. It is very early in flowering 

 and, like most wild types, quite at home when naturalised; 

 a grassy slope facing north being especially congenial. In 

 cultivation many selections have been made from "mos- 

 chatus" which are catalogued under various names as 

 albicans, moschatus of Haworth, etc., and it is the opinion 

 of the writer that many if not all varieties of the so-called 

 white trumpet daffodils owe their varying degrees of 

 trumpet whiteness, directly or indirectly, to the predomi- 

 nance of moschatus blood. 



MOSCHATUS OF HAWORTH. (A. 6 in. t75c doz.) A 

 charming dwarf small-flowering variety, a selection from 

 the preceding with charming, purest white flowers. A gem 

 for naturalising.

 ingly handsome late variety of vigorous growth, produc-

 when cut. Perianth white, the trumpet sulphur white. 

 First-class certificate, R. H. S. (Do not confound this, as 

 the writer did at first, with Mr. J. Bell Camm, the bi- 

 colour.)

 with white, prettily twisted petals and cream-coloured
