2O2 DAFFODILS^ NARCISSUS 



Like their single prototypes, these double 

 forms are healthy, vigorous growers, bloom 

 freely and adapt themselves to all sorts of 

 cultural conditions except hot and fast 

 forcing. They thrive in gardens and bor- 

 ders; are at home when naturalised; and 

 when grown cool and slow in pots they flower 

 beautifully during late winter. 



APRICOT PHOENIX. (C. 11* $50 ea.) An introduction 

 of 1905. Flowers large and very double, crown petals 

 apricot yellow, interspersed with the cream-white perianth. 



ARGENT. (D. 18 in. fi*$i ea.) A recent introduction

 "Butter and Eggs" a name doubtless suggested by the

 shading to orange at the centre. A free-growing and free-

GOLDEN PHOENIX OR ERINI. (B. 17 in. fi*$i doz.) A 

 large-flowered double Irish form, botanically "N. tncom-

 petals are interspersed with the rich golden ones. 



GOLDEN ROSE. (B. 17 in. fi*$2 doz.) Very large,

ORANGE PHOENIX. (C. 17 in. fl*4oc doz.) Popularly 

 known as "Eggs and Bacon" and as N. incomparabilis 

 albus aurantius plenus. Robust and free flowering. The
