Three Distinct Daffodil Collections 
In making a collection of Daffodils, one must approach the problem somewhat differently 
from the making of a Tulip collection. When choosing Tulips; color arrangements and 
combinations are given first consideration. This is not so with Daffodils. When a collection 
of Daffodils is made or a special group offered, we must think first of their use and purpose, 
rather than their color as is the case with Tulips. The three selections offered on this page 
have each a different purpose, as follows: 
No. 100 Collection for Mass Plantings is a selection of ten of the new lower priced 
varieties which naturalize easily or become permanently estoblished under shrubs in borders 
or on the margin of a lawn; in other words, used for mass plantings. 
No. 200 Garden Collection is a selection of six distinctly fine and new varieties, sucb as 
anyone with a small garden might like to plant. They constitute a wide range of forms and 
colors, and are all permanent kinds which carry on year after year without much care. 
No. 300 Show Collection is a combination of the choicest and better kinds. It is made to 
order for anyone who loves to study Daffodils and wants to make a hobby of them. Any of 
the varieties in this list can be shown at a Daffodil Show and will be almost sure to win a 
prize, providing, of course, the flowers exhibited ore in good condition and up to size. Here 
again, as in the other two collections, we have selected from the great list of varieties in 
cultivation, only those which are dependably permanent and good growers which increase 
from year to year with the minimum of care.
