LARGE TRUMPET II5 



yellow petals, and a beautifully twisted, large trumpet, 

 golden yellow — well flanged at the brira. 



Early Bird. Syn: North Star. (A. §11 $2 doz.) Per- 

 haps the earliest yellow daffodil in cultivation. It is ad- 

 mirably adapted for forcing, and if potted in September 

 may be had in flower at Christmas. Out of doors it blooms 

 two to three weeks earlier than any other sort. The flower 

 is of medium size and resembles the Tenby in outline. 

 The colour is full yellow, the perianth perhaps slightly 

 lighter in shade. 



Eliza Turck. (C. ii in. 1[ § * $1.50 doz.) A good-grow- 

 ing, free-flowering dwarf variety, well suited for the front 

 •cf borders and edgings, for rock gardens and naturalising, 

 as well as for pot culture. The flowers, of refined form, 

 are of soft, uniform yellow. 



Emperor. Syn: Lorifolius Emperor. (C. 21 in. § f * 60c. 

 doz.) A universally admired variety. It is one of the 

 best and largest of the all-yellow daffodils, deservedly 

 popular for pot culture, forcing, naturalising and for use 

 in borders. The flowers, borne on long stems, are of im- 

 mense size, firm in substance and of well-balanced form. 

 The broad trumpet is rich golden yellow, and the petals- 

 broad and rounded — are but slightly lighter in tone. It is 

 a strong, healthy grower and a free bloomer, doing its 

 best in a strong, rich, well-drained loam. 



Excelsior. Syn: Spurius Excelsior. (B. 18 in. §li*$i 

 doz.) A new extra large, early flowering, variety, similar 

 to Golden Spur, but richer in colour, being a deep self- 

 yellow throughout ; splendid for pot culture and for forcing, 

 and is thought to be the forcing narcissus of the future. 



Fred Moore. (C. 14 in. §1[$2 ea.) A new seedling; 

 a handsome flower of much substance, with an immense 

 deep golden trumpet, well expanded at the mouth. The 

 broad petals are well formed and of light yellow. A 

 grand variety for pot culture and for borders. Award of 

 Merit, R. H. S.
