NEW CLASSIFICATION OF THE DAFFODIL. 
For some years past a general want has been felt by Daffodil exhibitors for a wider 
classification of the Daffodil than the existing one, which has not been found sufficiently 
elastic to take in several new forms of the Narcissus family raised by hybridists since the 
great Daffodil Conference of 1884. The Narcissus Committee of the Royal Horticultural 
Society was approached on the subject, and to meet the case appointed in 1909 a sub- 
committee to carefully go into the matter, and see how far the existing classification could 
be modified or altered so as to facilitate the placing of the many new seedlings now being 
raised. A good deal of time and careful study was given by the members of the sub- 
committee to the subject, and the revised classification which they brought fonvard was 
almost unanimously accepted by the full Narcissus Committee of the Royal Horticultural 
Society. In the following pages we have adopted to a great extent this classification, 
which we hope will be of valuable assistance to exhibitors of Daffodils and to amateurs 
who desire to make a selection of distinct types. As will be seen, 10 distinct divisions 
have been made together with a section at the end to take in a few unclassed species 
and hybrids. With each division we have given the distinguishing character.
