DIVISION 8 - POETAZ 
(Tazetta Hybrids) 
They have several flowers on a single stem. 
These plants are tall and vigorous growers, bearing heads of large, well formed flowers, de¬ 
lightfully fragrant; they are much finer than the old Polyanthus Narcissi, and have the 
advantage of being much hardier. The following are the most satisfactory in this group. 
CHEERFULNESS. The double “Elvira,” a very pleasing 
double white Poetaz with good stem. A fine garden and 
show flower. $1.25 for 10; $10.00 per 100. 
ELVIRA. Three to four large flowers of great substance, 
borne on long, graceful stem; broad white petals and a 
golden yellow cup, edged orange; delicately fragrant. 
Makes a splendid combination in the garden when 
planted among the earliest Darwin tulips or massed on 
a bank with tulipa clusiana. $1.00 for 10; $7.50 per 
100 . 
GLORIOUS. Tall flower delightfully informal in habit, 
perianth Poeticus-white with orange eye, edged red; 
good for semi-shade; very early. First Class Certificate, 
1927. $5.25 for 10; $50.00 per 100. 
GOLDEN PERFECTION. A perfect perianth with wide 
overlapping segments, deep citron-yellow with mica 
sheen and cup of pure gold, perfectly proportioned to 
balance of flower; calyx gray-green flecked with gold; 
a giant Poetaz unique in its class. First Class Certificate, 
1926. Each, $1.50.

LAURENS KOSTER. Very handsome variety; perianth 
white with deep yellow cup. $1.15 for 10; $9.00 per

phur-yellow with glowing orange-scarlet cup often pro¬

primrose-yellow with a deep orange cup. A most in¬ 
teresting Poetaz. $3.50 for 10; $32.50 per 100. 
DIVISION 9 - POETICUS VARIETIES

These “Poet’s Daffodils” have snow-white petals and small, flattened eye or crown, yellow or 
lemon, edged more or less deeply with scarlet-crimson, and sometimes almost all scarlet. All 
are sweetly scented. “Poet’s Narcissi” are thirsty souls. They are thankful for a little shade. 
ACTAEA. The best of the Poeticus types. Very large, 
pure white perianth with deep orange cup. Very fine 
substance. A most beautiful exhibition flower. $3.25 for 
10; $30.00 per 100. See illustration, page 45.

ping petals, very flat cup, yellow edged red. Fine form
