YELLOW TRUMPETS 
The Trumpet class comprises those big, bold daffodils 
with trumpets that are as long as or longer than the 
perianth segments. They are the kings and queens of 
the Narcissus family; the most popular for cut flowers 
and for garden decorations because of their size and 
stunning appearance. Early to midseason. 
Division la. Yellow or lemon-colored trumpets and 
perianth of the same shade or lighter (but not white). 
J^erolitc. (2) The large flower is beautifully proportioned and gives an 
impression of gracefulness despite its size. The petals are deep primrose, 
broad and flat, and the shapely trumpet of a medium yellow. A long- 
lasting splendid garden or cut flower. Doz. $1.25. 
Alasnam. (2) Wide, short, densely frilled trumpet of pure deep yellow, a shade 
deeper than the perianth; finely placed with good neck; flower "looks you in 
the eye." Excellent for landscape groups and forcing. Each 30c. 
Bulwark. (3) A. M., Haarlem. Very large and imposing rich yellow flower 
of great substance. Much overlapping perianth of great size and breadth, 
standing well at right angles to the bold, large trumpet. Each $1.00. 
DAVID GRIFFITHS. (2) (Powell, 1936) A fine big flower of wonderful substance 
with broadly overlapping petals at right angles to the trumpet 4V2 inches in 
diameter, and a shapely trumpet 2 inches across and 1 Vz inches deep; rich 
deep yellow, borne on a 19-inch strong, stiff stem. Plant very vigorous and pro¬ 
ductive, with broad foliage. First in yellow trumpet and seeding classes and 
best flower in show, Takoma Horticultural Club, April 10-11, 1935. Each $12.50. 
Dawson City. (3) A superb large flower of faultless form and one of the most 
refined of the long, golden Trumpet class. The color is purest golden yellow. 
The flower has a broad flat overlapping perianth of smooth substance and is 
extremely handsome in a group. It leads all varieties for garden decoration 
in the estimation of English growers. 18 inches high. Dozen $2.50. 
Diotima. One of the best of the new super-giant yellow trumpets; despite 
its huge size (perianth being 5 to 6 inches across) the whole flower is 
beautifully proportioned and is carried gracefully on strong 2-foot stems. 
The broad overlapping petals form a star-shaped perianth of medium deep 
primrose; trumpet somewhat more deeply colored. Each $1.50. 
Fred Howard. (3) A flower of delicate harmony in form and color slightly 
lighter colored than King Alfred. Soft sulphur-yellow flat perianth; trumpet 
with deeply serrated brim nicely pleated. Dozen $2.00.
