There has been a tremendous increase in the in¬ 
terest in Daffodils within the past year and we have 
included in the present list numerous additions of 
the less common, new and unusual varieties raised 
by European hybridists. These hybrids are tremen¬ 
dous advances over the old standard varieties and 
are the results of years of painstaking work by such 
noted hybridists as Mrs. Backhouse, Williams, de 
Graaff, Van Waveren, Barr, Brodie and others. 
We would draw attention to the fine selection of 
varieties we offer for the Rock Garden, a selection of 
which will give flowers over a quite long season. 
We handle only the finest quality of double nosed 
bulbs and invite an inspection of our stock. Also a 
visit to our gardens in Daffodil time.
