I he collection of Daffodils contained in this present List 
is by far the finest that we have yet offered, and should help still 
further to augment our already great reputation. Amongst the 
Yellow Trumpets which we introduced last season, Leiden Jar 
will soon become a general favourite ; its colouring is perfectly 
distinct from any other flower in this section, and its value in 
the garden is great. 
In our opinion, Master of Balliol is another exceedingly 
fine variety which is considerably earlier than the majority of 
giant yellow trumpets, and which opened last year at the same 
time as Duke of Bedford. 
To those who are on the look out for good flowers at a 
moderate price, we cannot do better than recommend Cornelia, 
Fairy, Felicity, Gold Finch, Mrs. H. J. Veitch, and Outpost. 
Felicity has made heaps of friends on account of its extreme 
earliness, and its glorious colouring. This charming daffodil, 
and Fairy also, are two of the finest varieties for growing in pots 
and bowls, and the former may easily be had in bloom by 
Christmas without much forcing. 
In the Bicolor Trumpets, Much the Miller is a monster 
flower of superb beauty, and The Skipper is also of sterling 
merit. To Glory of Noordwijk we would draw special atten- 
tion, as it is proving of inestimable value to the hybridist, and 
during this coming season we hope to show some very fine 
seedlings raised both from its seed and by its pollen. Chloe, 
Marie Hall, and Princess Ena, are three Triandrus hybrids of 
perfect constitution, and all three were exhibited by us at 
Birmingham in splendid form.
