TRIANDRUS ALDUS —The dainty little "Angel’s tears” daffodils were found 
by the late Mr. Peter Barr on the mountains of Spain and Portugal, growing 
in very hard, firm, fine gritty soil, sometimes in the narrowest fissures of 
granite slatestone rocks. They make beautiful pot-plants and do very well 
in the rock garden where they form a picture of grace and beauty. They 
prefer shade, a gritty soil and a well-drained position; no manure should be 
given. 10.00 
TRIANDRUS CALATHINUS —One of the most beautiful little daffodils in 
existence. The flowers, which are produced in drooping clusters of two or 
three, are snowy white, and more than twice the size of Triandrus Albus, 
with long goblet-shaped crown prettily fluted; the foliage has a curious habit 
of curling over, height 7 inches. For pots and the rock garden it is a perfect 
gem. This beautiful little daffodil thrives best in a mixture of leaf-mould, 
heath soil and coarse sand, with just a little bone flour added; no other 
manure should be given. The late Mr. Peter Barr collected this rare daffodil 
some years ago on one of the sea-swept Glenan Isles (off Brittany). Unfor¬ 
tunately it is no longer to be found there, the sea having washed away all 
trace of this little species. It is, however, readily raised from seed. 50.00
