NARCISSUS or DAFFODIL 



Each year since the embargo on the importation of Narcissi went into effect we have been testing 

 American grown stock. We have found a wide variation in quahty in these bulbs in our trials. Narcissus 

 bulbs produced in this country are not yet the equal of those we were formerly permitted to import. 

 Nevertheless, we believe they will give satisfaction. 



Of the many varieties we have tried we have found the following kinds the best in their respective 

 classes. 



We believe the stock we offer is equal to any grown in this country. 



Polyanthus 



The Polyanthus Narcissus produce many small crowned flowers borne in clusters. They are not as 

 hardy as the other classes but are better adapted for forcing. 



Paper White Qrandiflora. Flowers pure snow white, desirable for their beauty and delicious odor. They 

 force admirably and flower freely in dense clusters. Will bloom as early as December. May be grown 

 in either soil or gravel and water. 10c each; 80c per 10; $6.50 per 100. 



Trumpet 



The trumpets of this type are as long or longer than the perianth segments. 

 King Alfred. Golden yellow perianth and trumpet. A sturdy grower and as yet unrivaled for size and 

 beauty. 25c each; $2.00 per 10; $18.00 per 100. 



Spring Glory. {Bicolor) Pur*^. white perianth, deep 

 golden yellow trurhpet. A large flower of excellent 

 form on long strong stems. Early and free flowering. 

 20c each; $1.70 per 10; $15.00 per 100. 



Incomparabilis 



The flowers of this class have a cup or trumpet 

 measuring from one-third to nearly the length of 

 the perianth segments. 



Sir Watkin. Large primrose perianth with a rich 

 yellow cup. One of the largest and best of this 

 class. 18c each; $1.50 per 10; $13.00 per 100. 



Leedsii 



A class with short trumpets, long graceful stems, 

 usually quite fragrant and well adapted for cutting. 



Mrs. Langtry. Broad white perianth with large 

 white cup faintly edged with yellow. Splendid for 

 naturalizing or for cutting. 15c each ; $1 .30 per 10 ; 

 $10.00 per 100. 



Poeticus 



These have a white perianth with a small flat- 

 tened yellow cup or eye. Perfectly hardy and easy to 

 naturalize. Very fragrant. 



Poeticus Ornatus. Pure white, cup yellow margined 

 with deep scarlet. This variety is considerably 

 earlier than Poeticus and is larger and showier. 

 Excellent for naturalizing as well as for forcing. 

 13c each; $1.10 per 10; $10.00 per 100. 



Poetaz 



This class produces its flowers in clusters. They 

 have a very short trumpet or eye, giving each flower 

 a striking appearance. They are very satisfactory 

 for forcing. 



Laurens Koster. Perianth white with yellow eye. 

 Flowers in clusters of 5 to 8 to a stem. The tallest 

 growing of this class and admirably adapted for 

 cutting. An excellent forcer. 16c each; $1.40 per 

 10; $12.00 per 100.

 at purchaser's expense. Not less than five of any one variety supplied 

 POETICUS ORNATUS at ten rates, and not less than 25 at 100 rates.
