NARCISSUS BURBIDGEI. 
Hybrid Poet’s Daffodils or Star Narcissi. 
These with their light and graceful habit and beautiful blossoms are much valued as pot plants (3 to 6

while naturalised in grass few plants are so beautiful. 
The Burbidgei Narcissi differ from N. Poeticus in the cup of the flower being a trifle longer ; the early 
forms commence flowering before Poeticus ornalus, and continue flowering in succession, one variety 
after another, from March to the middle of May.
