(Narcissus mm ^ Incomparabilis) 
For best effects allow four bulbs for each square foot to be planted. 
BERNARDINO. A gorgeous flower with 
large, welhclosed cream-white perianth and 
large, richly frilled cup of soft yellow with 
deep orange-apricot colored rim. Very 
sturdy. $1.20 per doz.; $8.95 per 100. 
CROESUS. If you were to ask Mr. Elliott 
what is the finest Daffodil in cultivation, he 
would answer most emphatically, “Croesus.” 
This marvelous Daffodil has a mammoth, 
flat orange cup against the reflexed peri¬ 
anth of delicate, light lemon-yellow. A 
truly marvelous variety. $1.55 per doz.'; 
$10.95 per 100. 
FRANCISCA DRAKE. Three years ago 
some 60 new Daffodils were planted in our 
test garden. Most of them, when they 
came into bloom, we judged worthless. 
“Just another Trumpet: A Barri not as 
good as Firetail—” was the disgusted com¬ 
ment of Mr. Elliott as he examined them. 
One, Francisca Drake, stood out from 
among the rest like a lighthouse on a dark 
night. A pure white perianth of unusual 
substance, each petal an inch and a half 
wide, tinted gold at the base; a cup, wide 
and deep, golden yellow at the base chang¬ 
ing to flame-orange at the edge of the beau¬ 
tifully frilled trumpet. The flower has the 
poise and grace of a gull on the wing. In 
the judgment of Mr. Elliott the new Fran¬ 
cisca Drake is lovely beyond compare. 
3 for ^1.50; ^4.50 per doz.; ^36.00 per 
100 . 
HELIOS. In this new variety 
the old giant Sir Watkin, 
with its lovely golden peri¬ 
anth and orange cup, is in¬ 
creased in size and brought 
up to date. Really lovely. 
$1.55 per doz.; $10.95 per 
100 . 
JOHN EVELYN. A new giant 
Daffodil with a perfectly formed 
flat perianth measuring 5 to 6 
inches in diameter, colored pure glistening 
white without a trace of cream shading, 
above which rises a flat cup 2 inches in 
diameter, fluted to the base,* and colored 
clean lemon-yellow with a suggestion of 
orange. One of the four or five most beau¬ 
tiful Daffodils in existence. 3 for 75c; 
^2.30 per doz.; ^15.45 per 100. 
LUCIFER. Before the creation of Francisca 
Drake, Lucifer was the acknowledged leader 
of the red-cupped Daffodils; indispensable 
in every garden. With its delicate sulphur- 
yellow, star-shaped perianth and chrome- 
yellow cup heavily suffused with orange- 
red, it is just as lovely as it always has 
been, though it is not, of course, as large 
as the great Francisca Drake. $1.10 per 
doz.; $7.95 per 100. 
ORANGE GLOW. A new and outstanding 
giant Daffodil with a promising future. 
A giant perianth, flat and overlapping, col¬ 
ored delicate primrose-yellow with a deep, 
beautifully frilled cup colored deep, glow¬ 
ing orange. 45c each; 3 for $1.20; $4.20 
per doz. 
Croesus 
SCARLET LANCER. Were 
it not that this new marvel 
is so scarce and rare, we would 
recommend it instead of Fran¬ 
cisca Drake. Its beauty rivals that 
of a great pearl in the crown of an 
Oriental potentate but like all such 
things Scarlet Lancer is expensive. A pure 
white perianth larger than that of Francisca 
Drake and even more refined in its pro¬ 
portions; contrasted with the perianth is the 
splendid cup colored the deepest, richest 
possible orange-red. 65c each; 3 for $1.80; 
$6.95 per doz. 
rare 
WHITEWELL. This new giant Daffodil has 
a pure white perianth which is star-shaped 
and flat or only slightly recurved. The 
cup, colored deep primrose, is large and 
bold, beautifully fluted and frilled, and has 
an orange edge. $1.15 per doz.; $8.45 per 
100 .
