HERMITAGE GARDENS MOVED. Lack of room forced 
our removal to a larger and better tract of ground. Hermi¬ 
tage Gardens are located at Aspen, 7 miles north of the Md.- 
D. C. line on the Brookville (Seventh Street) Pike. 
The Daffodils offered herein are new and standard varieties 
of the better kinds, comprising the best of the European origi¬ 
nations. By planting a suitable selection, including the earliest 
and latest varieties, you can have Daffodils blooming in your 
garden from 6 to 8 weeks. 
Plant Daffodils in early September, if possible, as they make 
root growth in early fall, but they may be planted at any time 
after digging in July until the ground freezes. In a mixed 
border plant three or more bulbs of a variety 6 to 8 inches 
apart and 4 to 5 inches deep, according to size of bulb and 
character of soil—deeper in light than in heavy soils. Leedsiis, 
white Trumpets, Poets, and bicolors produce the finest flowers 
when grown in partial shade. 
Breeding Daffodils is my hobby, and each year several thou¬ 
sand seedlings come into bloom. Inspection is invited during 
the blooming season in April of the seedlings from controlled 
crosses, as well as the collection of 400 varieties. All the popu¬ 
lar classes, but especially Triandrus hybrids, are represented 
among the seedlings by many outstanding individuals. 
Figures in parentheses following name indicate the relative 
season of bloom, 1 being earliest, and 6 latest. Orders ac¬ 
cepted subject to crop and previous sale. If any variety is 
sold out I will substitute a variety of similar character and 
value unless the purchaser instructs otherwise. 
The Daffodil is our dooryard queen 
' She pushes upward the sword already 
To spot with sunshine the early green.
