Trumpet Daffodils — Yellow 
DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERS—T rumpet or crown as long or longer 
than the perianth segments. 
(a) Varieties with yellow or lemon-colored trumpet, and perianth of same shade or 
lighter (but not white). 
*AEROLITE (De Graaff) 1923 )—Here is a golden daffodil that is sure 
to replace many of the present varieties as it becomes available ; the large 
flower is beautifully proportioned, giving the impression of graceful- 
ness, despite its size ; perianth deep primrose, with a pure medium yellow 
trumpet which is left in bold relief by the broad pointed star formed by 
the flat opening outer petals, an inch and a half wide; medium early, 
but remains until late, and is one of the longest lasting of all daffodils 
either in the: vardenjor-atter, beinigecutsnsce ian ee eee 
*ALASKA (De Graaff) 1928 — Giant flower of deepest gold; more 
graceful than most of the giant Ajax varieties as the trumpet is deeply 
frilled and recurved. This variety has been thoroughly tested in the 
greenhouse and on the Eastern cutflower markets and shows unusual 
promise as a future florist’s flower. Excellent for pots.............. 
*ALASNAM (De Graaff) 1923—-Wide, short, densely frilled trumpet 
of pure deep yellow, a shade deeper than the perianth; finely placed with 
good neck ; flower “looks you in the eye” ; excellent for landscape groups, 
also for forcing; very early and therefore in great demand by discrimi- 
nating florists who want something earlier and better than King 
Al fréd.. 3% seis eee es eo res ae ee 
APOTHEOSIS (van Tubergen 1927)—Very large flower on a rather 
short stem. Color lighter than King Alfred but very pleasing, petals 
semi-overlapping, trumpet very large and widely flaring, nicely rolled 
and flanged. Has very distinct value for exhibitions as its large size 
will attract attention but has been surpassed by many more refined

*BEN HUR (De Graaff) 1927—A glorious ‘loud speaker’? trumpet, 
deeply frilled of pure Roman gold, 2% inches across at the mouth; in 
spite of its immense size the whole flower is finely proportioned, one of 
the best of the new trumpets. A. Vin 1.930) 9 een eer ree

awards and is well known everywhere; lemon-yellow perianth over- 
lapping petals; trumpet light yellow; very late. A. M. 1914........

excellent quality and of value for exhibition. Broad flat perianth of
