ROYAL SOVEREIGN 



GOLDEN PERFECTION Each 30c; $3.00 per Doz. 



A Jonquil hybrid which produces two flowers to the stem, deep 

 bright gold in color, with widely expanded cup in exact harmony. 

 This has the same rare mica sheen as Golden Pedestal. The picture 

 on next page hardly does it justice. Shown on page 44. 



MOULIN ROUGE Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Very lovely double. Long primrose petals shading to cream down 

 the center, short petals deep yellow-orange, giving a tri-color 

 effect. Perianth light citron-yellow, the orange cup deeply frilled. 

 Very late. Illustrated on page 40. 



GLORIOUS Each 25c; $2.50 per Doz. 



A fiery little bunch-flowered Poetaz hybrid bearing great quan- 

 tities of fragrant flowers. Stems ore toll and the bulbs increase 

 rapidly. Clear white perianth petals with red-orange eye and 

 yellow heart. In color on page 45. 



MOUNT ROYAL Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A wide spreading deep yellow trumpet Daffodil, with perianth 

 having three base petals extra wide; the three inner ones being 

 narrower and more curved. A stunning feature of this flower is 

 the tremendously large trumpet — see page 38. Very late; noble 

 in appearance. 



HADES Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A rather late Incomparabilis with bright red cup described as 

 "cherry-red." This is set against background petals of soft 

 creamy white, giving it a warm glow. The contrast of colors is 

 startling. Tall, wiry stems and good sized flowers. 



JOHN EVELYN Each 25c; $2.50 per Doz. 



An outstanding favorite in the Daffodil world. Large, pure white 

 perianth opens perfectly flat and is 4 to 5 inches across. The 

 large, flat cup of lemon-yellow is densely frilled or shirred to the 

 base, as well illustrated on page 46. Unexcelled for either the 

 garden or the show bench. 



LADY HILLINGDON Each 20c; $2.00 per Doz. 



This graceful flower has the deep butter-yellow of the Jonquils, 

 but is larger in size; broad perianth petals, medium length 

 trumpet. Clean, self colored and very fragrant, with flowers in 

 clusters of two or three on tall stems. 



MRS. JOHN BODGER Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



This new white trumpet Daffodil is regarded by some os the 

 very finest of its type and color. When fully open it is as white 

 as new snow, and is lovely in all stages. A very late variety, it 

 opens deep ivory to canary, becoming lighter each day for about 

 three days. Then it lasts for a full week or more in spotless 

 perfection. Shorter than Beershebo. Shown on page 41. 



MRS. R. O. BACKHOUSE Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



This is the famous "pink trumpet" Daffodil. Fine informal 

 perianth of ivory-white, the inner petals slightly twirled. The 

 trumpet is slim and long, opening apricot-pink and turning true 

 pink, deeper at the crinkled rim. Delicately beautiful but of 

 exceptional substance. Belongs in every collection. See page 42. 



NOVA SCOTIA Each 30c; $3.00 per Doz. 



Very large, flat, golden yellow cup with heavily fringed, deep 

 orange margin; perianth creamy white. A new Incomparabilis. 



LADY KESTEVEN Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Words foil to describe this wonderful Daffodil adequately. The 

 perianth is as white as new snow, well formed and substantial; 

 the cup is brilliant deep red — the most startling contrast of colors 

 imaginable! Very tall; quite late. 



OCTAVIANUS Each $1.75; 3 for $4.50 



An exceptional flower of beautiful proportion and finish, big and 

 bold. A huge trumpet, recurved, of greenish moon-yellow, is 

 set upon a clear pale primrose perianth. There is sharp contrast 

 in the two colors. Looks right up at you. Very late and long 

 lasting. 



LOVENEST Each 40c; 3 for $1.00 



A delicate pink-toned variety, the trumpet opening apricot-lemon 

 and gradually turning to pink at the rim. Perianth is white. 

 Earlier than the pink Mrs. Backhouse. 



QUICKSILVER Each $1.25; 3 for $3.00 



Well named silvery white flower of pleasing proportions. A 

 new, long-crowned Leedsi that is exceedingly graceful and fine 

 for either garden or show.
