DIOTIMA 
_ 
ALL YELLOW DAFFODILS 
Division 1-A—Large trumpet varieties with both trumpet and perianth 
same shade of yellow. 
AEROLITE. As you can see from the picture this is a beautifully shaped 
flower. It has good stems, holds its head well up, and altogether is an 
excellent variety especially for garden decoration. The color is soft, me- 
dium yellow throughout. Medium early. 3 for 55c, 12 for $2.00, 100 for 
$15.00. 
DAWSON CITY. A most attractive golden yellow flower having much 
the form of the white Beersheba. It is becoming popular for both garden 
and cutting. A desirable variety to extend the daffodil season as it is 
rather late flowering. 3 for 60c, 12 for $2.25. 
DIOTIMA. A daffodil of giant size but well proportioned—-lacking the 
coarseness of some of the extra large varieties. The somewhat star-shaped 
perianth (5 to 6 inches across) is deep primrose. The trumpet is golden 
yellow. There has never been a sufficient supply to care for the demand 
for this variety. Each 75c, 3 for $2.00, 12 for $7.50. 
GOLDEN HARVEST. A new giant daffodil that we believe is going to 
capture some of the popularity from King Alfred as soon as it becomes 
better known. It is earlier and larger than King Alfred but does not have 
as strong a stem. The flower is well formed and has good daffodil color— 
deep golden yellow. 3 for 70c, 12 for $2.50. 
KING ALFRED. See page 2. 
MINISTER TALMA. If you want a profusion of large golden yellow daf- 
fodils very early in the season at a low price here it is. Besides being 
good in the garden it is also a most satisfactory variety for growing in 
pots, producing many flowers on stems of medium height. Our bulbs are 
large and will make from two to four blossoms the first season. 12 for 
$1.40, 100 for $10.00. 
WINTER GOLD. Each year this bright golden daffodil comes into full 
bloom long before most of the “early” daffodils are showing color. Plant 
a clump of them in a warm protected spot for the first real daffodil dis- 
play of the season. The large flower has a bright yellow perianth and 
long frilled trumpet of deeper yellow. 3 for 70c, 12 for $2.50.

Hints on Growing Daffodils 
Like all other bulbs, narcissi-daffodils repay us for 
giving them the proper care by producing more and 
better flowers. Start with good bulbs; this almost 
guarantees flowers for the first year. See that the 
soil is well prepared. This means deep digging and 
plenty of plant food, especially phosphates and pot- 
ash. Early planting is advisable. September is the best 
month for most parts of the country. Cover the tops 
of the bulbs about 4 inches, and in cold climates 
mulch well after the ground has frozen. It is a mis- 
take to leave the bulbs too many years without re- 
setting them. They become crowded and fail to 
bloom. About every third year, dig the bulbs when 
the tops have ripened. Store in a cool, airy place and 
reset in the fall. Never move the bulbs before or 
during blooming time as it will injure their growth 
very severely.
