The Garden, April 4th, ]908. 
Messrs. Cartwright and Goodwin, Kidderminster, had a 
delightfully interesting lot of Daffodils. Mcrvyn, for example, a seedling 
from Emperor crossed with Tenby pollen ; Evangeline, a new Leedsii ; 
Felicity, an early Ajax kind of Princeps form ; with Glory of Noordwijk, 
Mme. de Graaff, Glitter, Citron and others. A most charming lot. 
The Gardeners’ Magazine, April 4tli, 1908. 
The best exhibit of Daffodils came from Messrs. Cartwright and Good- 
win, Kidderminster, who staged pots of Golden Spur, Mervyn, White Lady, 
Alton Locke, Madame de Graaff, and Glitter, as well as cut flowers of these 
and other varieties. Mervyn, a shapely seedling from Emperor and obval- 
laris, and Evangeline, the latter a charming Leedsii variety with yellow cup, 
were both fine. 
The Gardeners’ Chronicle, April 4th, 1908. 
Messrs. Cartwright and Goodwin, Kidderminster, staged a 
group of Daffodils, in which we noticed many novelties, the flowers being 
displayed with judgment and skill. Notable sorts were Mervyn (Emperor 
x obvallaris), with stiff, overlapping segments, a shapely and substantial 
flower ; Evangeline ; a lovely new Leedsii with a lemon-coloured cup ; Glory 
of Noordwijk ; Felicity, a charming flower of a uniform yellow shade, and 
said to be one of the earliest of Narcissus to bloom ; also a fine bicolor seed- 
ling which promises to eclipse Glory of Noordwijk ; Glitter, Mme. de Graaff, 
White Lady, and Citron. Many pots of finely-grown Daffodils contributed 
to the interest of this display. (Silver Banksian Medal.) 
Gardening Illustrated, April 1 1 th. 
By far the choicest lot of Daffodils in the exhibition came from Messrs. 
Cartwright and Goodwin, Kidderminster, and if we single out such 
as Mervyn and Evangeline (Yellow Ajax and Leedsii respectively), we 
have a pair difficult to beat. Mme. de Graaff, Glory of Noordwijk, and 
others were of great merit, but there were also some very promising unnamed 
seedlings. The pot-grown Daffodils from this firm were well grown, and 
merit all praise. 
The Gardeners’ Chronicle, April 18 th. 
Messrs. Cartwright and Goodwin, Kidderminster, showed a 
beautiful lot of Narcissi in choice kinds, such as Rising Sun (rich yellow self), 
Glee Maiden (Minnie Hume x Snowflake), a variety having a white Picotee 
edge, Argosy (a new giant Leedsii), Duke of Bedford (bicolor Ajax), Alice 
Knights, &e. (Silver-Gilt Banksian Medal.)
