of one euen colour, that is, of a fine pale yellow , fomewhat like vnto the colour of a 
Lemon peele or rinde, but fomewhat whiter, which vfually we call a Straw.e colour : 
the gt eatneffe of the flower, the earl ineffe of the flowring, and the difference of colour 
from all the reft ofehis kinde,hath made me entreate of it apart by it l'elfc,as being no 
leffe worthy.

The great white Spanifhbaftard Daffodill. 
This baftard Daffodill hath diuers leaues rifing vp together, long and broad, fome- 
what like vnto the firftSpanifh kinde, but a little broader, and of a whiter greenc co- 
lour, yet not fo white, asin the leffer Spanifh white kindes, hereafter defcribed:among 
thefe leaues rifethvp a round ftrongftalke, about twofoote high, bearing one white 
flower at the toppe, bending downe the head, as all thefe white kindes doe, but is nor 
of fo pure a white, as theldfer kindes that follow, yet whiter then the greateft white 
Spanifh kinde, next of all to bedeferibed : the whole flower , as well trunke as wings, 
is much larger then the Idler white kindes , and almoft equalling the firft Spanifh yel- 
low, but a little longer and narrower,a little crumpled and turning vp at the brimmes: 
the head and feede arc like the firft ; the roote is greater and thicker then the firft Spa- 
ni(h,and doth not encreafefo much, nor is coueredwith ablacke, but rather with a 
whitifhcoatc.

The greateft Spanifh white baftard Daffodill. 
This kinde of baftard Daffodill is very like the laft mentioned Daffodill , both in 
leaues and flowers, but larger in both: the flower of this is not full fo white, but hath 
fome (hew of paleneffe therein, and more vpon the firft opening of the flower then af- 
terwards, and is as great altogether, as the great Spanifh yellow, at theleaft with a 
longer, and fomewhat narrower trunke : the feede is like vnto the former, and fo is the 
roote alfo, but greater, being white on the outfide, and not blacke.

Thetwo leffer white Spanifh baftard Daffodils. 
There are two other of thefe kindes of white Spanifh Daffodils, one greater or lef- 
fer then theother, but neither of them fo great as the former. The leaues of both are 
of a whitifh greene colour, one a little broader then the other : the flowers of both arc 
pure white,and bending downe the heads, that they almoft touch the ftalkeagaine, 
the greater flower hath the longer and narrower trunke ; and the leffer flower, the 
fhorter and wider open, yet both a little crumpled at the edges or brimmes : the rootes 
of both are like one vnto another, but differ in the greatneffe. From the feede of thefe 
haue fprung much variety , few or none keeping either colour or height with the mo- 
ther plants. 
PfcncLossarciflus Anglicus vulgar is. Owe common Englifh wilde baftard Daffodill. 
This baftard Daffodill is fo common in all EngIand,both in Copfes, Woods, and 
Orchards, that I might well ferbeare the defeription thereof, and efpecially, in that 
growing wilde , it is of little refpedt in our Garden : but yet , left I bee challenged of 
ignorance in common plants, and in regard of fome variety therein worth the mark- 
ing, I will fet downe his defeription and variety as briefly as I may :It hath three or 
fouregrayifh greene leaues, long and fomewhat narrow, among which rifethvp the 
ftalke,aboutafpan high or little higher, bearing at thetoppc,outofaskinniehuske, 
as all other Daffodils haue, one flower (although fometimes I haue feenc two toge- 
ther) fomewhat large, hauing the fix leaues that ftand like wings, of a pale yellow co- 
lour, and the long trunke inthe middle ofafaireyellow, with the edges or brimmes 
a little crumpled or vneuen ; after the flower is paft,it beareth a round head , feeming 
threcfquare, containing round blackc feede j the roote is fomewhat blackifh on the 
outfide.
