DAFFODILS 
PINK DAFFODILS 
Since they are so entirely distinct from other varieties, 
we are placing these in a little group all their own. 
Mrs. R. O. Backhouse is officially a Leedsii but that is 
misleading for it is a large trumpet daffodil in shape. 
MRS. R. 0. BACKHOUSE. The famous “‘pink’’ daf- 
fodil. The long slender trumpet is apricot-pink chang- 
ing to shell-pink at the deeply fringed edge. Informal 
ivory-white perianth. Although the whole flower has 
a delicately beautiful appearance it is really unusually 
long lasting. Double nose bulbs, each 90c, 3 for $2.50, 
= for $9.00. Round bulbs, each 75e, 3 for $2.00, 12 for 
$7.29. 
ROSABELLA. A very attractive novelty. The color of 
the trumpet is a lovely shade of apricot-pink. In shape 
it is somewhat flaring and nicely frilled at the brim. 
The creamy perianth has a pleasingly informal appear- 
ance. Each $6.50, 3 for $17.85. 
LEEDSII 
LARGE CUPS AND SMALL CROWNS 
Division 4. White perianth and white or nearly white 
trumpets or cups. They range from Giant Leedsiis like 
Gertie Millar and Marmora to the small crown type 
like Mystic. 
DELAWARE. This is one of our special favorites. It is 
a beautifully formed flower of large size. The large 
trumpet or cup is unusually deeply crinkled and of thick 
velvety substance. The cup opens a golden quince color 
and changes to creamy lemon. Pure white perianth. 
Delightfully fragrant. Eaeh $1.50, 3 for $4.00, 12 for 
$15.00. 
GERTIE MILLAR, Another of the charming Giant 
Leedsii type that have trumpets as large as the large 
Trumpet division but are much more gracefully formed. 
Pure white perianth, pale primrose cup deeply fluted 
and frilled. Each 50¢c, 3 for $1.40, 12 for $5.00. 
HERA. When this flower is fully developed it becomes 
a uniform clear white—a very lovely thing. Large 
broad petaled perianth, medium size cup, nicely frilled, 
edged with primrose on opening. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.60, 
100 for $12.00. 

SILVER CHIMES 
(See page 12) 
MARMORA. An exhibition variety of the very highest class. The 
flowers are very smooth, of heavy, wavy texture. Broad, somewhat 
pointed perianth and nicely flanged crown—all of ivory-white. Tall 
growing and very free flowering. Each $3.25, 3 for $9.00. 
BEERSHEBA 

MRS. NETTIE O'MELVENY. A fine tall-stemmed flower with large 
perianth of pure white, medium size cup of clear lemon-yellow with 
orange picotee. A delightful flower with more color in the cup than 
the other Leedsii narcissi listed here. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.60, 100 for $12.00. 
MYSTIC. An exquisite flower obtained by crossing a Leedsii with a 
superb Poeticus seedling. It has a clear white broad perianth and large 
flat eye of white shading to cool green in the center and having a rim 
of clear pinkish orange. Tall vigorous grower. Late. Each $2.00, 3 for 
$5.50. 
QUEEN OF THE NORTH. Broad glistening white perianth. Medium 
size lemon-yellow cup that is prettily fluted. A very attractive flower 
on a tall stem. 12 for $1.50, 160 for $11.25. 
SILVER SALVER. Charming flower of purest white. Poeticus type 
perianth and flat eye of glistening white with a touch of emerald green. 
Each $1.75, 3 for $4.80. 
SILVER STAR. One of the very loveliest daffodils and now most 
moderate in price. Broad creamy-white perianth with a beautifully 
ruffled wide mouthed trumpet just a shade deeper. Unusually free 
flowering. Double nose bulbs. 3 for 50¢, 12 for $2.10, 100 for $15.75. 
Round bulbs, 3 for 45e, 12 for $1.70, 100 for $12.75. 
TUNIS. A magnificent daffodil for the garden and an exhibition 
variety of much merit. Large long-lasting flowers on tall stems. Attrac- 
tive tall foliage. Broad waved white perianth. Large expanded cup 
which opens primrose and changes to white with a well marked frill 
of coppery gold. Highly recommended for California as well as colder 
climates. Our stock of this variety is of very high quality. Double nose 
bulbs, each $1.20, 3 for $3.30, 12 for $12.00. Round bulbs, each 95e, 3 for 
$2.60, 12 for $9.60. 
WHITE NILE. A splendid white daffodil highly recommended both 
for cutting and for garden decoration. The large cup opens pale lemon 
but changes to almost pure white. Early. Each 50ec, for $1.35, 12 for 
$5.00.
