General List of Barr’s Daffodils. 
For Alphabetical List of all the Varieties offered in this Catalogue, 
see General Index, page a of Cover. 
The following list of Daffodils embraces the highest class, and most distinct varieties, 
surpassing in beauty and diversity all other assortments offered to the public. They 
represent the cream of our Collection (over 500 kinds), and the best of the newest varieties 
in commerce up to 1905, several being offered to the public for the first time this season. 
During the past few years we have discarded many of the older kinds which we considered 
had been superseded by better sorts, those which are now offered by us being really good 
and distinct. Those hinds which are marked in this Catalogue "discarded," can be supplied if required. 
TIME OF FLOWERING, HEIGHT, Etc. 
The relative period of flowering of the different v.arieties ami .species out of doors we have denoted 
by means of nuinheis after the names, thus : 
(1) 1 st early, flowering from February to early March. 
( 2 ) 2nd early, flowering in March. 
(X) Varieties flowering in mid season, or early in April. 
( 4 ) Late-flowering varieties, from middle to end of April. 
(5) Very late flowering varieties, opening in May. 
The actual period of blooming depends upon the season and district; thus in early districts (i) would 
commence iu January ami early February, while in colder districts end of February or beginning of March ; 
but the natural rot.ition would remain the same. 
HEIGHT.-ln most cases we yive also the liei^hts in inches as recorded at our nur.scries. 
QUALITY OF FLOWER. - Fach season we go carefully over our Daffodil collection with a view to 
recording the (piality of each variety. This we indicate hy x, xx, xxx, xxxx, and xxxxx, giving the most 
marks to those we judge to he the fine.st. The result we have added to this catalogue, trusting it may be 
found a useful record to amateurs. I^ariet/rs suhir/t we consider to be superseded by better sorts, or which we 
have found to have a poor constitution, we have discarded, 
* The varieties marked thus * thrive best under the shade of deciduous trees, naturalised in grass 
in shady nooks, or on grassy slopes facing north. 
t indic.ates those kinds which should be selected where Daffodils are grown in pots; they are, 
how ever, also good border varieties. 
§ indicates those Daffodils which, besides being fine border plants, make a pretty effect w’hen 
naturalised in grass ; they are all strong growers and free bloomers.
