overlapping. Long primrose-yellow trumpet, well built and 
exquisitely flanged at mouth. In our winning 50, Birmingham

great improvement on any pink trumpet Daffodil yet introduced. 
Trumpet well shaped and gracefully recurved at rim. Perianth a soft 
creamy white, making a delightful background for the pink trumpet. 
Flower of good size, lasting and useful both as a seed and pollen 
parent. M.S. 
The Skipper (C . <£* G.) A cross between Mme. de Graaff and 
Weardale. Very long, full yellow trumpet of Mme. de Graaff

which are of Weardale character and colour, but far more even and 
overlapping. Strongly recommended. L.

with lemon white, slightly hooded, overlapping segments and a long
