Description. 
Sol (Engleheart). A large flower with firm, well set 
perianth of soft, pale yellow and a very long crown of 
deep, rich yellow. An excellent grower, with broad 
dark green foliage. The few seedlings from this variety 
that we have seen, have confirmed our impression of 
its great value. Rather late, but a good seeder and 
reliable pollen flower. Stock limited. ...

Bicolon Trumpet Daffodils. 
Chloe. Raised by T. Batson, Esq., this fine variety created 
the greatest surprise and delight at the last great Birming- 
ham Show, where it was the only flower that gained an 
A.M. The following press notices help to confirm our 
opinion that this is unquestionably the finest triandrus 
hybrid yet seen. 
Midland Daffodil Society Report, for 190S. 
" A beautiful refined flower of slightly drooping habit, pure white 
perianth, measuring 4J inches across, pale lemon trumpet with a distinct 
narrow white edge round the rim. Emperor x triandrus albus." 
The Garden , May 2nd , 100S. 
" A soft coloured giant Johnstoni, with a beautiful refined perianth. 
It received a unanimous A.M." 
The Gardeners' Chronicle , May 2nd , 1 90S, 
" A beautiful shaped flower, with a broad cream-coloured perianth, 
and a soft canary or pale yellow cup." 
The Gardeners' Magazine , May 9th , 1 90S. 
" A typical giant Johnstoni with pale soft colouring and a flat over- 
lapping perianth. It is a decided acquisition." 
We, ourselves, carefully tested the pollen of this 
magnificent hybrid, and are glad to say that it proved 
quite fertile. The plant is a perfectly healthy grower. 
We have purchased the entire stock, but as it is a very 
small one we have only two bulbs to offer in 1909. 210/-
