Daffodils 
The first of the more 
important bulbs to blos- 
som in the spring are 
the hardy and easily 
erown Narcissus, some 
of which, notably the 
long trumpet varieties, 
are commonly called 
Daffodils. They should 
be planted early in the 
fall in well prepared 
soil, which 1s perfectly 
drained and not too 
heavy. Bone meal is a 
safe fertilizer. If ma- 
nure is used, it should 
be very old and should 
be dug in so deeply that 
the bulbs will not come

TRUMPET DAFFODILS 
AEROLITE. One of the newer YELLOW TRUMPETS just becoming well 
known. The flower is of special distinction because of the unusually broad 
petals of the perianth. The trumpet is deep yellow. It is medium early and 
lasts long either in the garden or after it is cut. Each 14c, Doz. $1.35. 
BEERSHEBA. A magnificent WHITE TRUMPET Daffodil, very large, with 
a lone, slender, white trumpet which is beautifully flanged at the mouth. 
The perianth petals are glistening white, perfectly flat, and over-lapping at 
the base, but gracefully pointed. This lovely white flower is outstanding in 
any garden or flower show. If you are building a daffodil collection for your 
own pleasure or to exhibit, you will certainly want to plan BEERSHEBA. 
Each $1.25. 
EMPEROR. A standard YELLOW TRUMPET which has been used for bed- 
ding and forcing for many years. The perianth is primrose and the trumpet 
deep yellow. It flowers later than many other varieties. 3 for 25c, Doz. 80c. 
GLORY OF SASSENHEIM. A BI-COLOR with a rich yellow trumpet and fine 
cream-white perianth, a large flower of pleasing form. Each 10c, Doz. $1.00. 
GOLDEN BEAUTY. A BI-COLOR with a golden-yellow trumpet and broad- 
petalled cream-yellow perianth. A fine, well built flower on sturdy, medium 
leneth stems. Each 13c, Doz. $1.25. 
KING ALFRED. The popular YELLOW TRUMPET which sets the standard 
for all other trumpet daffodils. Large golden-yellow flower, with a long 
trumpet beautifully frilled and recurved at the mouth. This is by far the 
best and most widely planted of the Yellow Trumpet Daffodils. Each 10e, 
Doz. $1.00.
