HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA—SPRING FLOWERING BULBS 35 
Narcissus Poetaz 
(Cluster-Flowered Daffodils) 
These are a cross between the Poeticus and Polyanthus types, partaking 
largely of the former in the size and form of the individual flowers, and also 
inherits the strong, free growth of their Poeticus parentage. In the manner 
of producing their flowers in cluster, and in extreme free-flowering qualities 
they possess all the merits of the Polyanthus type. Excellent for forcing 
in pots or pans, also out of doors if given some protection during the winter. 
Early Perfection. An early and very free flowering variety, with 
spikes of many white flowers with distinct yellow cup. 20 cts. each; 
$1.85 per doz.; $13.00 per 100. 
Elvira. Very free-flowering, producing a number of stems to a bulb; each 
bearing 3 to 4 large flowers, with broad, heavy white petals and a bright 
yellow cup, edged orange-red. 15 cts. each; $1.40 per doz.; $9.00 per 100. 
Helios. The best yellow variety. Petals soft primrose-yellow, deep 
golden-yellow cup; flowers of good size, produced in clusters of 5 to 7 
or more. 20 cts. each; $1.60 per doz.; $11.00 per 100. 
Laurens Koster. One of the latest introductions, and producing very 
large flowers; perianth pure white, deep orange-yellow cup prettily 
fluted. 5 to 7 flowers on a stem. 15 cts. each; $1.40 per doz.; $9.00 
per 100.

Narcissus PoEticus THELMA 
The Poet’s Narcissus 
(Narcissus Poeticus) 
This is the old-fashioned favorite type; all have snowy white 
‘flowers, with yellow or lemon cups margined more or less deeply with 
, red and with rich, spicy odor. All do well in the open border, or 
naturalized in grass, are perfectly hardy, and once planted take care 
of themselves. 
Poeticus (Pheasant’s Eye or Foei’s Narcissus). Flowers snow-white, 
with beautiful lemon-yellow cup edged with bright orange-red. 
10 cts. each; 90 cts. per doz.; $6.50 per 100. 
Poeticus Ornatus. More symmetrical than the old Poeticus, and 
blooms almost a month earlier; flowers large, pure white, cup 
margined with scarlet. 12 cts. each; $1.10 per doz.; $7.50 per 100. 
Poeticus Horace. Snowy white petals with large cup or eye nearly 
all deep scarlet, a very attractive variety. 15 cts. each; $1.30 per 
doz.; $9.00 per 100. 
Poeticus Juliet. A handsome variety with broad, imbricated 
white perianth, cup canary yellow thinly edged with madder-red. 
20 cts. each; $1.65 per doz.; $11.00 per 100. 
Poeticus Thelma. We consider this the finest Poet’s Narcissus yet intro- 
duced. The wide overlapping substantial petals are of snowy-white, the 
broad light yellow cup distinctly margined with deep scarlet. A strong, 
free grower and bloomer. Extra fine. 20 cts. each; $1.65 per doz.; $11.00 
per 100.
