Jonquils and Jonquil Hybrids 
Division 7. Here are the true jonquils—delightfully fra¬ 
grant deep yellow flowers in clusters with nearly round “rush¬ 
like” foliage. The flower stem is round while the stems of the 
daffodils and narcissi are somewhat flattened. Superb for 
naturalizing and the smaller ones are fine for the rock garden. 
Some of the hybrids have trumpets like the large daffodils 
with jonquil color and fragrance.

jonquil and large trumpet daffodil. Clear buttercup yellow

stem. Delightfully fragrant. Foliage erect and rush-like.

100 for $5.00. 
ODORUS CAMPERNELLI PLENUS (The Double Camper¬ 
nelle Jonquil). A splendid variety bearing heads of deep yellow 
double flowers on tall stems. Rich green rush-like foliage. 
Delightfully fragrant. Like the other campernelles it is much 
better when not dug for two or three years. 12 for 75c, 100 for 
$5.00. 
GOLDEN SCEPTRE. Another attractive hybrid of a single 
jonquil and large daffodil. It has the color and fragrance of 
the jonquil with a daffodil-like trumpet. Tall stem and attrac¬ 
tive foliage. Wonderfully free flowering. The first blooms 
come quite early followed by secondary stems that result in 
the flowering period being longer than almost any narcissus in 
our plantings. Sometimes two flowers on the stem. 12 for 80c, 
100 for $6.00.
