“POETAZ” GROUP 
These are hybrids between the early flowering bunch-flowered Narcissi 
(Tazetta) and various forms of Poeticus. They are invaluable in California 
gardens for their splendid vigor, great freedom of bloom, and pleasant frag¬ 
rance. They are full of artistic possibilities as cut flowers, all having two or 
more blossoms to a stem. Our list is an exceptionally fine one. 
ALBERT VIS (Vis 1913) 6. Bold white perianth with flat orange eye; a 
handsome plant and one of the last to flower. each 50c 
ANAK (Australian) 3. Dainty lemon-tinted form... each $3.50 
ASPASIA (van der Schoot 1910) 4. Finely formed white flower with 
yellow cup . 2 for 25c 
CHEERFULNESS—(see Doubles). 
GLORIOUS (J. C. Williams 1923) 4. Tall large white flower with a 
strong reddish rim to the orange cup; said to be good in semi-shade and a 
splendid cut-flower . each $2.00 
GOLDEN PERFECTION (de Graaff 1927) 5. A gigantic smooth soft 
yellow flower with a somewhat deeper yellow cup; two or three flowers to a 
stem and therefore ranked as a Poetaz, but it is a most magnificent flower 
totally different from any of the others; small stock. each $15.00 
HELEN MARY (Dutch origin) 4. White and yellow; a very lovely 
variety for bowl or pot culture. each 25c 
HELIOS (Dutch origin) 2. Primrose yellow perianth with a deeper cup. 
The earliest Poetaz to open. 2 for 25c 
KLONDYKE (van der Schoot 1907) 4. Yellow perianth with cup of 
deeper tone . each 20c 
MEDUSA (P. D. Williams 1907) 3. Lovely round white perianth with 
scarlet-orange eye; a beautiful garden plant. each 50c 
PEERLESS (Mrs. Backhouse 1927) 4. A lovely variety sometimes 
classed as a “Barrii”, although there are two or three flowers on a stem; the 
cup is hot intense reddish orange, one of the most vivid hues to be found in 
our daffodils, which is very sun-resistant; slow of increase. each $5.00 
PRINCESS YOLANDE (Mooy 1930) . A magnificent new Dutch intro¬ 
duction, the flowers large and in heavy heads, but borne on sufficiently stout 
stems with leaves to match; white with deep yellow eye. each $1.00 
PROFUSION (Dutch origin) 3. Lovely starry white perianth with 
yellow eye, the flower heads loosely arranged giving a light informal effect 
of great charm both in the garden and in vases; almost one of the indis- 
pensables and not nearly so well known as it deserves (see illustration on 
front cover) . each 35c 
SCARLET GEM (P. D. Williams 1910) 4. Primrose perianth with lively 
orange eye . each 25c 
STARLIGHT (Australian origin) 5. Narrow petaled white perianth with 
small deep orange cup; a charming piece of color. each $3.00 
“THE POETS”

alike, but a properly chosen series will give not only a longer period of
