* Dick Wellband. 2B. (lII.) One of the finest of recent introduc- 
tions. Very strong grower and exceptionally free flowering. The 
perianth is pure white and the cup a brilliant flame-orange. One 
of its most remarkable qualities is that the color does not fade 
but rather intensifies with age. The flower has unusual lasting 
qualities. Its greatest beauty lies in the startling contrast be- 
tween petals and cup which makes it stand out even in the larg- 
est collection of Daffodils. An exhibition variety par excellence.
