DAISY SCHAFFER 
LEEDSII NARCISSUS 
These are the Star Narcissus. Perianths are white, and cups or crowns 
white, cream or pale citron, sometimes tinged with pink or apricot. They are 
very dainty, have remarkable substance and are splendid keepers. There are 
so many charming flowers in this classification that most of them could be 
printed in BLACK FACE TYPE. The new Giant Leedsii type flowers are very 
chaste in appearance despite their enormous size.
