DELAWARE 



ADLER 



CHEERFULNESS 



A cluster-flowered Daffodil often referred to as a "double Nar 

 cissus." The tall erect stems produce a cluster of several small 

 blooms, with broad, rounded, creamy white perianth and full 

 double center of creamy white and yellow. Very sweet scented.

Each 20c; $2.00 per Doz. FRANCISCA DRAKE 



Each 25c; $2.50 per Doz. 



COVERACK PERFECTION 



A really huge novelty with most unusual coloring — pure white 

 petals that are wide and overlapping, a broad and quite flat crown 

 of creamy buff edged salmon-gold. This is the only real expensive 

 novelty in our list; if you want a Daffodil of utmost distinction, 

 treat yourself to one of these. Large, tall, and lasts incredibly 

 long in flower. 



CROESUS Each 20c; $2.00 per Doz. 



A great favorite for many years. Clear canary-yellow perianth; 

 rich orange crown slightly deeper at the rim. The segments are 

 extra wide and the short crown fairly blazes! Shown in color on 

 page 47. 



DAWSON CITY Each 25c; $2.50 per Doz. 



This is a big deep yellow trumpet Daffodil, fine for either garden 

 planting or for exhibition. Broad flat perianth of smooth sub- 

 stance, well-formed flanged trumpet, of a self golden yellow. 



DELAWARE Each $2.00; 3 for $5.00 



Cup opens a golden quince color, changing to creamy lemon and 

 is deeply crinkled. Against the spotless white background this 

 provides a striking contrast. A very new and unusual Daffodil, 

 strong growing and free flowering. 



DICK WELLBAND Each 50c; 3 for $1.40; $5.00 per Doz. 



With a perianth of pure white and cup of brightest flame-orange 

 this is one of the finest in its class. One of the remarkable quali- 

 ties of this flower is that the color of the cup does not fade but 

 seems rather to intensify with age. Extra late and long lasting; 

 short but wide cup, tall stems and wide foliage. 



FORTUNE Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



No Daffodil collection is complete without Fortune. The wide 

 perianth is solid bright yellow; the crown is bold and heavy, bril- 

 liant coppery red-orange in color. Extremely early, coming into 

 bloom almost a week ahead of other varieties. A gorgeous flower 

 on 24-inch stiff stems. 



An unusual flower of rare beauty. Perianth of silvery white, 

 tinted gold at the base; cup wide and deep, golden yellow at the 

 base changing to flame orange. The edge is densely frilled; sta- 

 mens bright yellow. Early, with toll stems far above the foliage. 

 See page 47. 



Each $15.00 GERTIE MILLAR 



Each 50c; $5.00 per Doz. 



A real giant of a flower, which, despite its size, is delicately beau- 

 tiful because of its soft ethereal coloring. Perianth is clear white; 

 the short but wide trumpet opens lemon-yellow and quickly 

 changes to ivory-buff, holding this color to the end. Colored 

 picture on page 46 is greatly reduced in size. 



Each $1.75; 3 for $4.50 



a glistening sheen not usually seen on 



GOLDEN PEDESTAL 



Solid bright gold, with 



Daffodils. So perfectly formed that it almost appears to be arti 

 ficial! Of incomparabilis type, with slightly shorter cup than most 

 yellow trumpets, this flower is a sure-fire winner at the shows and 

 a standout in the garden. Very tall stems. Shown on page 40. 



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. 



GLORIOUS 



Each 40c; $3.75 per Doz. 



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

 tities of fragrant flowers. Stems are tall and the bulbs increase 

 rapidly. Clear white perianth petals with red-orange eye end yel- 

 low heart. 



HADES Each $1.00; 3 for S2.75 



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. 



JEFTA 



Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



An early bicolor of delicate cream color, with giant trumpet of 

 pale lemon, slightly recurved at the mouth. A seedling of the 

 old favorite, King Alfred.
