DAFFODILS. — GROUP II.-MEDIO-CORONATI (baker). 
Queltia, Philogyne, Qanymedes, etc., of Salisbury, Haworth, and Herbert ; Peerless, 
Nonsuch, Chalice-Shaped Crown, etc., of Parkinson. 
Distinguishing Character — Crown or cup half as long as the divisions of the perianth, but in one or 
two cases three-quarters as long. 
The light elegant varieties in thisgroup are hybrids, excepting Triandrus, Odorus, and Juncifolius, which arc 
species. Incomparabilis is found wild in France. Herbert, Leeds, and Backhouse, however, produced it by 
crossing Poeticus with a 'Trumpet Daffodil. Macleaii {Panza bicolor of Salisbury) is considered to be a hybrid 
between a Tazetta and a Trumpet Daffodil. Although we have no positive data as to the parentage of all the 
new hybrids and varieties described in this group, we think it may fairly be assumed that Poeticus and the 
Trumpet Daffodils gave all the varieties of Incomparabilis; Poeticus and Incomparabilis would give Barrii, 
which may be described as shorter cupped forms of Incomparabilis ; Poeticus and Cernuus, or Albicans, gave 
the varieties of Leedsii, " the Eucharis-like Daffodil,” which has the perianth white, and the crown white, or 
primrose. Mr. Baker however suggests as the parent of Leedsii, Montanus and Poeticus: those who at present 
are. hybridizing Narcissi will perhaps settle this {point. Humei, Mr. Baker suggests as a hybrid of Montanus 
and Incomparabilis. Poeticus and Bicolor would give Nelsoni, Backhousei, and Sabini. Bernardi we know to 
be a hybrid between Poeticus and Variiformis, Mr. Barr having collected it from amongst these two species, 
Tridymus, we think, is a hybrid between a Tazetta and a Trumpet Daffodil. 
The varieties in this group commence flowering in March, and furnish a succession till May. They are 
all of great elegance and beauty, and, as cut flowers, are extensively used for furnishing vases and table bouquets. 
J83- All the varieties enumerated in Group II. are prized for pot-culture, flowering under glass 
with the Hyacinth, and should he cultivated the same way, 3 or 5 large bulbs in a 6-inch pot ; 
Narcissus which produce small bulbs, such as Triandrus and Juncifolius, 6 to 12 bulbs to a 6-inch pot. 
The cut flowers of this Group are much in demand for bouquets and vases. General cultural directions, p. 4. 
issr This Group II. are all Hybrids, with the exception of N. triandrus, N. odorus, 
AND N. JUNCIFOLIUS.
