NARCISSUS TRIANDRUS {syn. Ganymedes). 
The White Cyclamen-flowered Daffodil. 
The dainty little “Angel’s Tears” Daefodil (Tnandrtis albus) was found by our Mr. Peter 
Earr 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. All in this section are veritable gems when grown 
in pots {see page 4), while on rockwork they form a picture full of grace 
and beauty. 'J hey prefer shade^ a gritty soil, and well-drained position.

tCALATHINUS (3), xxxxx. One of the most beauti- 
ful little Daffodils in existence. The flowers are much 
larger and <]uite distinct in form from Triandrus albns ; 
the cup is large of a snowy white, and very elegant in 
form, perianth snowy white and elegantly reflexed, 
ht. 7 in. For pot culture and rockwork it is a perfect 
gem. Mr. Peter Barr collected this rare Daffodil 
some years ago in the Isles of Glenan, the collecting 
being attended with a good deal of risk. It is now 
almost extinct on those islands, and we therefore 
recommend purchasers to take every care of this lovely 
and rare flower 15 0...I 6
