1 1 2 DAFFODILS — NARCISSUS 



Abscissus. Syn: muticus. (D. 12 in. t$3.so hu.) A 

 native of the French Pyrenees. Belongs to the broad- 

 leaved lorifolius section and is one of the latest blooming 

 ot all trumpet daifodils. It is somewhat variable in size 

 and form, though well-rogued cultivated strains usually 

 produce large flowers with a much elongated trumpet of 

 bright yellow and a sulphur-yellow perianth of 

 twisted petals. It is a free pollen bearer and a parent 

 of some of the best bi-colours. Well suited for naturalising. 

 When mingled with the red-mouthed poeticus types, 

 flowering at the same time, they cross freely 

 and produce many interesting hybrids, and, according to 

 Mr. Max Leichtlin, "if we are to have scarlet daffodils 

 this would be the beginning.''

 very early and free flowering. A handsome flower

Admiral Togo. (C. 20 in. §11 $2 ea.) A handsome

 A bold flower with widely expanded golden trumpet and 

 broad canary-yellow perianth: desirable for pot culture and 

 borders. 



AlidA. (D. If 50c ea.) A new seedling of strong
