HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— SPRING FLOWERING BULBS 



Narcissus Incomparabilis Autocrat 



CHALICE-CUP or MEDIUM TRUMPET 

 NARCISSI or DAFFODILS 



This class is also known as the chalice-cup or medium trumpets, and com- 

 prises some of the most beautiful and graceful forms. All are suitable for 

 growing indoors in pots or pans, and are specially adapted for naturalizing, 

 being of free growth and multiplying rapidly. They are becoming better 

 known and more appreciated as newer varieties are offered, the red cups of 

 many sorts add a brilliancy and brightness heretofore unknown ex- 

 cepting in the Poet's narcissus. 



Bath's Flame (Barrii). Yellow perianth, deep yellow cup with 

 broad edge of orange-red. The petals are very long, giving the 

 flowers a distinct and outstanding character. 22 cts. each; $2.00 

 per doz.; S15.00 per 100. 



Conspicuus (Barrii). Perianth soft yellow; broad spreading cup, 

 magnificently illuminated with scarlet; a most distinct and beauti- 

 ful sort, and should be grown in quantity for cutting, as it lasts 

 longer when cut than most sorts. 12 cts. each; $1.00 per doz.; 

 $6.50 per 100. 



Firebrand (Barrii). The combination of creamy white petals and glowing 

 red fluted cups really suggests live bits of coal resting on sheer inflammable 

 material. A small flower when compared to the latest introductions, but 

 not inferior to any of the most expensive in brilliancy. Very free flowering 

 when established a year or more. 15 cts. each; SI. 20 per doz.; $8.00 per 100. 



Lady Moore (Barrii). Snow white perianth, yellow cup with deep orange 

 edge. A beautiful substantial flower with good stems, very free flowering 

 and easy to force. Very effective in the border or the rock garden. 22 cts. 

 each; $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 



Red Chief (Barrii). White perianth, bold flat cup with broad band of 

 bright crimson scarlet. 12 cts. each; $1.10 per doz.; $8.00 per 100. 



Sir Watkin (Incomparabilis). "Giant Chalice Flower." or "Big 

 Welshman." A gigantic flower, the largest in this section; perianth sulphur- 

 yellow, cup slightly deeper in color and tinged with orange: fine for pot 

 culture; in fact, does well everywhere. 15 cts. each; $1.30 per doz.; S9.00 

 per 100. 



Bernardino (Incomparabilis). A very beautiful flower with large broad 

 creamy perianth and very large pale cup prettily fluted and heavier stained 

 deep apricot orange. A good free grower. 15 cts. each; $1.20 per doz.; 

 $8.00 per 100. 



Evangeline (Leedsii). A free-flowering, strong growing sort, 

 pure white perianth and delicate primrose cup; charming for 

 pots and for naturalizing. 12 cts. each; SI. 00 per doz.; $6.50 

 per 100. 



White Lady (Leedsii). An exquisite flower with broad pure 

 white overlapping petals and dainty cup, prettily crinkleJ, of a 

 beautiful pale canary yellow shade; very free bloomer and of 

 great value for cutting. 12 cts. each; SI. 00 per doz.; $6.50 

 per 100. 



Autocrat (Incomparabilis). A showy and free-growing 

 variety, with large star-shaped flowers, perianth rich yellow 

 with deeper yellow wide expanded crown or cup; a splendid sort 

 for pots or for outside planting. 15 cts. each; $1.20 per doz.; 

 $8.00 per 100. 



Lucifer (Incomparabilis). One of the showiest and most 

 striking varieties; the flowers, which are produced with remark- 

 able freedom, are of large size, the perianth pure white, while the 

 crown or trumpet is a brilliant orange-scarlet, the contrast being 

 decided and producing an effect that attracts the attention of 

 everyone. We strongly recommend this unusually brilliant 

 Daffodil. 12 cts. each; $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100. 



Whitewell (Incomparabilis). One of the very best bicolor 

 Incomparabilis. Petals pure creamy white, bold open crown of 

 that strong yellow which is a near approach to orange. Excellent 

 size and texture, a friendly substantial flower slightly facing 

 upwards from 18 inch stems, attractive garden variety. 20 

 cts. each; $1.75 per doz.; $12.00 per 100.
