NOTES FOR 1935 
We have been won over to the use of the name Daffodils, instead 
of Narcissus, and the Classification of the Royal Horticultural Society 
of England has been followed with exception of “Daffodils for the 
Rock Garden.” 
Red Crowns and red cups, also the white Trumpet types, are enjoy¬ 
ing an increasing public affection. Our list is rich in interesting highly- 
colored varieties. 
The price per thousand is nine times the printed “per hundred” price. 
Two hundred and fifty of one variety take the “per thousand” rate. 
Orders amounting to $500.00, made up of “per 100” quantities and 
prices, take an extra discount of 5%. Those totaling $1,000.00 or more 
enjoy a discount of 10%. 
We hope you will consult us if you need photographs, cutflowers, 
special collections, etc. 
According to an announcement by the United States Department of 
Agriculture, the quarantine on foreign Narcissus or Daffodils will end 
December 15, 1936, when greater sources of supply will become avail¬ 
able to the florists and seedsmen of the United States. There will then 
be opportunity to put wonderful new varieties of Daffodils before the 
public, at a more reasonable price than is possible now, due to the 
forced “two year” restriction on imported stock with its hazards and 
losses and expense. We expect a great wave of enthusiasm among the 
gardening public for the fine Daffodil creations of England and Hol¬ 
land. When we will be able to draw on our two growing stations in 
the United States, plus the favorably known nurseries of our company 
in Holland, we shall be able to offer you a service, a selection and a 
quality and price on Daffodils, which will be very helpful to raise your 
* 
and our volume of sales. 
Although the domestic quarantine on Narcissus will not be continued 
after March, 1935, we have asked the State Service to kindly inspect 
and certify our crops the same as before. 
There will be a continuous exhibition of Daffodil blooms at our 
nurseries at Nuttall, Gloucester county, Virginia. As soon as they open, 
every variety will be shown in a special exhibition room, so that visitors 
can make every possible note and comparison in ease and comfort, 
independent of the weather and the Virginia soil in spring. After the 
Daffodils, a varied collection of longstemmed Tulips will be shown.
