PARVI-CORONATI 31 



(J. G. Baker). " Most of the true Burbidgei's are 

 merely seminal phases of N. Poeticus, the Daffodil 

 parentage being almost if not quite obliterated " 

 (F. W. Burbidge). Burbidgei (type) has pure 

 white segments spreading horizontally and inclined 

 to reflex, and a small yellow crown suffused and 

 edged very bright red. 



There is a considerable variety, both 

 in colour and outline, among the forms 

 usually classed as Burbidgei ; and some 

 more accurate rule than at present 

 obtains is needed for distinguishing 

 between these and flowers of the Barrii 

 group.
