As there is sometimes a little con- 

 fusion as to the difiference between nar- 

 cissi and daffodils it will be in order to 

 explain that all of the trumpet types of 

 narcissi, of which there are three main 

 groups, are known as "dafTodils." The 

 first group is the large trumpet type. 

 The narcissus poeticus crossed with the 

 large trumpet daffodils has given us the 

 hybrids, such as the "chalice cupped" 

 or star shaped daffodils, the Incompara- 

 bilis, Barrii and Leedsii types. These 

 are of the second group, distinguished 

 by the length of the cup, which is from 

 a third to three-fourths the length of 

 the perianth or petals. The third group 

 has the cup less than one-fourth the 

 length of the perianth — the best known 

 examples being the poeticus types. 



The large trumpet daffodils are the 

 most popular, as they are the best 

 known, and some of the finest garden 

 varieties are' of this class. They also 

 force easily, making ideal pot plants. 



Of the earliest large yellow single 

 trumpet daffodils that can be grown in 

 beds or naturalized. Golden Spur, Henry 

 Irving and the Tenby daffodil, Obval- 

 laris, are all splendid, graceful flowers, 

 free blooming and distinctive. Follow-

to arrange for an exhibition. From that 

 moment the future of the daffodil was 

 assured, and this popular favorite has 

 since held its own as the most fashion- 

 able spring flower, its production and 

 sale developing into one of the important 

 industries of the British Isles and Hol- 

 land. The entire world pays homage to 

 the daffodil, and even in far away Austra- 

 lia the Melbourne Dafifodil Show lasts 

 for three days each season. Coming in 

 endless variety, adapting themselves to 

 every planting condition or requirement, 

 their stately and delicate beauty, exciui- 

 site perfume, earliness, free blooming 

 and keeping qualities endear them to 

 all who ha\-e grown them. Once planted 

 in the field or garden they need no 

 further attention, but will thrive and

ing these come the fine old-fashioned 

 double Von Sion, Telemonius Plenus, a 

 grand free blooming, hardy variety that 

 succeeds everywhere. The white Span- 

 ish daffodil, AllDicans, and the Bicolor 

 Victoria, with bright yellow trumpet, 

 white perianth, a flower of great sub- 

 stance aiid delightful perfume, should 

 fellow the first flowers. After these 

 Emperor, rich deep yellow, a magnifi- 

 cent large flower, and Bicolor Empress, 

 with snowy perianth and yellow trumpet. 

 .\11 of these are inexpensive, easily 

 obtainable and sure to give results, and 

 when once planted need little or no 

 attention, improving each year. 



Two newer varieties of unusual merit 

 are Madam de Graaf, a grand new white; 

 and Glory of Leiden, a giant yellow of 

 great beauty, of which the illustration at
