HOW TO FORM A COLLECTION e^ 



stitution ; should be grown without manure in fibrous 

 maiden loam (l). 



Emperor. — A large, stately, self-yellow flower (3). 



P. R. Barr. — Very similar to " Emperor," but a little 

 later ; is smaller and more refined in form (4). 

 r Bicolor Princeps. — One of the earliest bicolors ; very 

 useful. It is also a very good subject for cold frame 

 treatment (i). 



Bicolor Horsfield, or Bicolor Empress. — These are very 

 similar. Horsfield when well-grown makes rather larger 

 flowers, is about a week earlier than " Empress," and is 

 rather more graceful in form, but the flower of " Em- 

 press " has more substance and lasts longer (2). 



Bicolor " Grandee." — Flowers in succession to " Hors- 

 field" and "Empress," to which it is similar. It has 

 very finely shaped perianth segments. Late and very 

 fine (5). ! 



Sulphur Ajax W. P. Milner. — A dwarf sulphur- 

 coloured Daffodil changing to white ; valuable both for 

 its elegance and its good constitution (3). 



Star Narcissi. 



Incomparabilis Queen Bess. — The earliest of the Star 

 Narcissi (l). 



Incomparabilis Sir Waikin. — A gigantic light yellow 

 flower; a little coarse in form, but very showy and 

 invaluable for decorative purposes (2). 



Incomparabilis Givyther. — Yellow with orange-stained 

 cup (3). 



Incomparabilis Autocrat and Incomparabilis Frank Miles. 

 — Two remarkably fine forms of self-yellow Incompar- 

 ables, quite distinct from each other (3). 



Incomparabilis Stella Superba (3). — See Certificated 

 Varieties, page 91. 



Incomparabilis Beauty (3). — See Certificated
