BARR’S HARDY DAFFODILS (Narcissi). 
Bulbs Supplied September to end of December. 
In a separate catalogue the descriptive list of Daffodils will be found, re-arranged into two groups. The 
First Group embraces only the high class and distinct varieties. The Second Group includes all the cheap 
kinds, of which we have large stocks, and these arc offered at greatly reduced prices, to encourage extensive 
naturalization, also as they are all beautiful sorts, we recommend them for filling flower beds, and “ boxing- 
up " to force for cut flowers. 
In the Daffodil Catalogue, we have arranged our grand collections of Irises, Lilies, Pseonlas, Hellebores, 
Michaelmas Daisies, Perennial Sunflowers, Phloxes, Plantain-Lilies, Day-Lilies, and Hepatlcas, with a 
comprehensive list of beautiful hardy perennials, decorative in flower borders, shrubberies, large beds, and to cut 
for table bouquets.

The Daffodil is the most beautiful of all hardy Spring flowers, and the most popular ; it has for centuries 
adorned our gardens, and withstood uninjured our severest winters. 
For filling beds and planting in groups in mixed borders and shrubberies, no flowers of spring can compare 
with the Daffodil, and when naturalized in woodland walks, or forming large groups in grass, or planted on 
sloping banks, the effect is splendid. All the strong growing Daffodils are adapted for naturalization, including 
such fine sorts as Emperor, Empress, I Iorsfieldii, Moschatus varieties, etc. ; their noble or chastely coloured 
flowers, in such situations, are seen to great advantage. The slender, and dwarf-growing sorts, such as Minor, 
Nanus, Minimus, Juncifolius, Triandrus albus, Corbularias, Cyclamineus, etc. , could be naturalized on rock- 
work, and in almost all mountainous districts, on slopes facing the south. For edgings these dwarf Daffodils are 
gems. For culture under glass, in pots, the Daffodil ranks with the Hyacinth, and when 3 to 6 bulbs are grown 
in a pot, the effect is very fine. As a cut flower the Daffodil is unsurpassed, and greatly in demand.

The varieties embraced in these assortments consist largely of the fine hybrids and varieties raised by 
Mr. William Backhouse and Mr. Edward Leeds ; they are all distinct one from the other, so that buyers cannot 
fail to be fully satisfied with them. They may be used for pot-culture or forced for cut (lowers. Being hardy 
they are suitable to plant in flower beds and borders, in the grass, or to naturalize in orchards.
