Gallection: of Gamous Exhibition Vartettes 
Max Schling presents with pride a famous collection for Daffodil and Narcissus fanciers and 
connoisseurs of fine flowers. 
The following varieties of Daffodils and Narcissi represent selections that have made their 
mark, in that, they have received highest honors at the various flower shows held in the 
Netherlands in the past decade. They represent the results of years of skillful breeding by 
experts who have inherited their skill from generations of bulb breeders. 
At the present time these varieties are just becoming available to the American public. 
American growers in the past five years have succeeded in building up stocks of these show 
varieties to the point that we are now able to offer them at reasonable prices. 
All Daffodil and Narcissus lovers should by all means try at least one each of these out- 
standing varieties.

HYACINTHS 
As we go to press it seems unlikely that we 
will have any Hyacinth bulbs to offer. 
Last year we met the greatest part of our 
demands, sacrificing a good bit of our plant- 
ing stock in order to do so. 
Additional stocks seem hardly available, but 
we still hope to receive a small number of 
bulbs. 
May we suggest, that if any Hyacinth bulbs 
are required, upon receipt of inquiry we will 
advise just which of the bulbs are available. 

A good substitute for Hyacinths are Scilla Cam- 
panulata in all colors. 
French White Roman Hyacinths are offered on 
page 14.
