“THE GARDENERS’ MAGAZINE,” April 30th, 1910. 
Narcissus Matthew Arnold. 
This is a particularly beautiful Poeticus variety, of medium size, 
but with broad, solid white segments, that make up a flower of the 
highest florist’s type. The cup or crown is brilliant crimson. A.M., 
R.H.S., April 19th. Messrs. Cartwright & Goodwin, Kidderminster. 
“THE GARDEN,” April 30th, 1910. 
Narcissus Poeticus Matthew Arnold. 
A novelty in the Poeticus section of decided merit, the flowers not 
merely possessing a perfectly circular outline, but rare substance in 
the well overlapping perianth segments. The eye or crown is of 
intense colouring. Prom Messrs. Cartwright & Goodwin, Kidder- 
minster. Award of Merit. 
“THE GARDEN,” May 7th, 1910. 
Messrs. Cartwright & Goodwin were evidently keeping all their 
best things up their sleeve until Birmingham; but for all that they 
had some very fine things — Bert Sands, a giant bicolor incomparabilis 
like a rounded off Lady M. Boscawen ; King Cup, the lovely rival to 
Homespun ; White Cloud, one of the absolutely pure white triandrus 
hybrids; and Goldfinch, a grand deep yellow Magni. An interesting 
little hybrid which most people would pass by unnoticed was one 
that looked like a miniature Katherine Spurrell. It is the result of 
crossing Minnie Ilume with a Jonquil, and is remarkable for having 
the Jonquil scent transmitted to it. 
“THE GARDENERS’ CHRONICLE,” April 23rd, 1910. 
Messrs. Cartwright & Goodwin, Kidderminster, showed a particu- 
larly good collection. Amongst the finer flowers we selected for notice 
Much the Miller, a new bicolor of exceptional merit ; King Cup, a 
very handsome incomparabilis ; Finespun, a rich yellow, and so 
named, we imagine, by reason of its refined beauty. Mrs. William 
Miles, a very handsome incomparabilis sort, whose big, orange, 
frilled crown excited admiration. Goldseeker, Admiral Makaroff, 
King Alfred, and Cornelia, all superbly-coloured varieties of the 
yellow Ajax section ; with Kvangeline, Amazon, and White Cloud of 
the I.eedsii type (Silver-gilt Flora Medal). 
“THE GARDENERS’ CHRONICLE,” May 7th, 1910. 
Messrs. Cartwright & Goodwin, Kidderminster, had many hand- 
some varieties of Narcissi, of which Rudyard Kipling (a Poeticus 
variety), King Alfred, Monarch (a refined, self, yellow Ajax flower), 
Graham Hyde (a very handsome, yellow, self variety). King’s Norton, 
Red Sunset (a brilliant-eyed Engleheartii), Ariadne, and many 
beautiful triandrus hybrids of merit may be mentioned. (Silver Flora 
Medal).
