AWARDED TRE ONLY COLD MEDAL AT THE SECOND GREAT 
DAFFODIL CONFERENCE. APRIL 15th, 1890. 
THE HOME OF NARCISSUS CYCLAMINEUS. 
This unique Daffodil was found wild in its largest development in wet meadows. Rev. Dr. Watson, Largs, 
has flowered it annually since its introduction ; Rev. H. Ewbank, Isle of Wight, has it happy on a dry 
rockwork ; Mr. G. H. Cammell, Hathersage, has it happy at the foot of a rockwork and increasing; 
at Kcw, Mr. Dewar reported successful culture. Dr. Foster, of Cambridge, has grown it in his garden 
(subsoil of chalk) since 1889, and each year it has improved, and is now increasing. Mr. F. W. Burbidge 
has grown it successfully since 1886 in pots, frames, out-doors against a warm house, and latterly 
bloomed it in the grass in a damp meadow. Mr. C. J. Backhouse, of Weardale, grows it successfully 
all over his garden, but on rockwork the flowers are largest.
