NAECISSUS AND TULIP COMMITTEE, APEIL 30. 



clxxv 



The first two-day Daffodil Show was held under the new arrange- 

 ments. The brilliant sunshine and drying winds of the previous fort- 

 night had proved exceptionally trying to Daffodils ; consequently the 

 exhibition was not so extensive, nor were the flowers of such high 

 quality as the promoters had hoped.
