NARCISSUS TRIANDRUS (syn. Ganymedes). 
The White Cyclamen-flowered Daffodil. 
This dainty little 1 A N'GEl.’s TEARS’ Daffodil was found by our Mr. Peter Barr on 
the mountains of Portugal and Spain, growing in very hard, firm, fine gritty soil, sometimes 
in the narrowest fissures of granite and slatestone rocks, they arc veritable gems when 
grown in pots (see page 4), while on rockwork they form a picture full of grace and beauty. 
They all prefer shade, a gritty soil, and well drained position. 
ALBUS (3), an exquisitely beautiful little flower, appropriately called the ‘Angel’s 
Tears ’ Daffodil, flowers white, variable in size, perianth elegantly rcflexed. (Are

CALATHINUS (3), beautiful snowy white flowers, much larger and quite distinct from 
Triandrus alhus, extra fine. This very rare little Daffodil was collected some years 
ago, by Mr. Peter Harr, on the < Glcnnans,’ the collecting being attended with a good 
deal of risk. After that, for a few years we failed to procure any, but in 1S97 we 
were fortunate in getting a limited quantity — the last we fear for some years to come. 
YVe therefore recommend purchasers to take every care of this lovely and rare flower.
