The production of new varieties from controlled crosses 
of the best varieties and species has been an absorbing 
hobby since 1925. Among the thousands that bloom each 
year are many of the very highest quality. They must be 
seen to be appreciated. It is not possible to describe them 
in the limits of this catalog. The best are offered to appre¬ 
ciative daffodil lovers at very moderate prices. 
Figures in parentheses following name indicate the rela¬ 
tive season of bloom, 1 being earliest, and 6 latest. F. F. C., 
indicates First Class Certificate, the highest award given 
by the Royal Horticultural Society (and by others); A. M., 
Award of Merit. 
Orders accepted 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 other¬ 
wise. 
No orders accepted after October 1.
