The large flowered Daffodils are very well for bold showy appearance in the 
garden, but when it comes to indoors and the closer and more intimate associa- 
tion, the small flowered varieties are by far to be preferred. They are more taste- 
ful and charming for table decoration, and make up for their size in refinement 
and abundance of bloom. The small flowered Daffodils are more generally 
called Narcissus and Jonquils. 
Barrii 
Bath’s Flame (4) (See illustration). A splendid large flowered Barrii with deep 
yellow perianth supporting cup of darker yellow deeply edged blazing orange- 
red. Award of Merit, R.H.S. 20 in. 3 bulbs 35c, $1.25 doz., $9.00 per 100. 
Diana Kasner (4) (See illustration). This variety is highly recommended for show 
purposes. It flowers freely in the garden as well as being a good forcer. The 
nerianth is pure white and the large fluted yellow cup has a blood-red frill. 
3 bulbs 30c, $1.00 doz., $7.00 per 100. 
Firetail (4) (See illustration). This is the finest red-eyed Barrii yet seen, and is 
a really great flower. Large spreading and overlapping ivory-white perianth 
of much substance, and flat crinkled crown of richest blazing solid red which 
lasts exceptionally well. Very tall, 24 inches is common. A most vigorous grower 
and profuse bloomer. Firetail looks like a glorified Poeticus, but is a strong 
growing Barrii. Award of Merit, R. H. S. 25¢ each, 3 bulbs 70c, $2.50 doz. 
Mrs. Barclay (3) is a very fine and pleasing Barrii. (See illustration.) The flower 
is large and has well-formed overlapping petals of pale primrose changing to 
pure white. The flat bright yellow crown is edged bright orange-scarlet. It is 
extremely showy and a great favorite in the garden. Height 20 inches. 3 bulbs 
35c, $1.25 doz., $9.00 per 100. 

Poeticus 
Actaea (See illustration). The largest Poeticus in existence. Broad snow-white 
petals of great substance and good form. The very large eye is broadly mar- 
gined with dark red. A beautiful exhibition flower. 30c each, 3 bulbs 80c, $3.00 
per doz. 
Cassandra (4). A flower of fine form and substance, with broad, clear white 
perianth and a small eye deeply rimmed dark red. A fine border variety and 
one of the largest of the Poeticus. Height 17 in. Award of Merit, R. H. S. 3 bulbs 
25c, 90c doz., $6.50 per 100.

snow-white petals with orange cup edged scarlet. First Class Certificate, R. H. S.
