SEEDLING DAFFODILS (MIXED) FOR NATURALIZING 
For the past ten years we have, as a hobby, been growing daffodils from seed. This is the 
way all the new and improved varie ies of daffodils are developed. No two seedlings will be 
exactly alike when they.bloom for the first time six or seven years after the seed is planted. 
It then takes three blooming seasons to establish the variety. After that, the flower from 
that bulb will always be the same and its offsets or slabs will produce the same flower as 
the mother bulb. 
As our seedling plot has become quite an 
extensive planting (10.000 bloomed in it this 
spring), we have decided to dispose of part of 
the planting at very attractive prices. 
In this assortment most of the daffodils 
will be large flowers of the long trumpet type, 
but a very few have short cups. You will find 
all shades of yellow, long trumpet daffodils 
similar to King Alfreds: bi-color daffodils with 
creamy white petals and trumpets of various 
shades of yellow. There will be huge frilled 
trumpets, long straight trumpets. short wide 
trumpets; all shades of yellow daffodils, cream 
colored daffodils, and even some all white ones; 
large ones and smaller ones. Most of them 
will be as large or larger than the King 
Alfred and Spring Glory varieties: some will be 
10 
smaller, but all are unexcelled for naturalizing, 
borders, or cutting. 
In fact, this is an extra special mixture that 
has attracted many favorable comments by all 
the visitors who have seen them in bloom here 
at the farm.
