ZERO (G. L. Wilson) 4a. 24 in. Early midseason. A magnifi- 
cent giant white of great purity. Very large broad flat 
smooth perianth with pointed segments, and a good sized 
rather long crown, somewhat expanded at the mouth. The 
big flowers are well poised on tall strong stems. A really 
wonderful flower that lasts well and is very white on first 
opening. Very scarce. $20.00 each. 
ZOE (West) 2b. A tall large creamy colored perianth and light 
orange yellow crown. A big informal flower that is nice for 
cutting. $1.00 each. 
SPECIES 
N. Bulbocodium conspicuus. The hoop petticoat Daffodil. 
Deep chrome yellow flowers with narrow inconspicuous 
petals and a large trumpet that completely dominates the 
flower. Dwarf grower. 10c each. 
N. Canaliculatus. A miniature “Chinese Lily” or tazetta form 
blooming late in the season. Small white flowers with yellow 
cups borne in clusters on stems six or eight inches tall. Very 
sweetly scented. Vigorous and perhaps the most prolific of 
all Daffodils. 10c each; $1.00 per dozen. 
N. Jonquilla simplex. Clusters of very sweetly scented small 
deep yellow flowers. Rush-like foliage. 10c each. 
N. Juncifolius. A small form of the jonquil with tiny sweet 
scented yellow blossoms borne one to three on a stem. About 
six inches tall. Very pretty but difficult to grow. 35c each. 
N. Maximus superbus. Large tall intensely go'’den yellow 
trumpets. Much twisted perianth segments. Presumably the 
parent of King Alfred and the forerunner of the modern 
yellow trumpet varieties. Early. 25c each. 
PRIMROSES 
Polyanthus Primroses in a good range of colors with 
large sized blooms, many as large as a silver dollar. Seed 
saved from select plants. 50c per packet. 
Blue Primroses. Seed saved from light, medium and 
dark blues mixed together, both from polyanthus and 
acaulis varieties. An excellent foil for edging Daffodil beds. 
75¢e per packet. Hand pollenated seed of either mixed 
colors or blues at $1.00 per packet. 
OUR BARGAIN OFFER FOR THOSE NOT 
INTERESTED IN NAMED VARIETIES 
SEEDLINGS 
Each year we grow thousands of seedlings from crosses 
made between our best named varieties and other seedlings. 
From these we select the best for propagation, and among 
these selected are the ones eventually named and introduced. 
Most of the seedlings, however, are either too similar to the 
best named varieties we have to warrant introduction or are 
inferior to them. A large percentage of them are much better 
than the old fashioned Daffodils and some are equal in quality 
to some of the higher priced varieties. These are sold in mix- 
ture as follows: 
GENERAL MIXTURE. This group contains the lot as listed 
in former catalogues together with the lot offered as our 
Better Mixture last year and the Yellow Trumpet mixture, 
making it a very good and complete assortment of various 
types, colors, shapes and sizes. Good blooming size bulbs, 
mostly double nose, at $1.50 per dozen prepaid; $8.00 per 
100 express collect. 
BETTER MIXTURE. Out of our trial beds which include 
the selections made each year from the best of all those that 
bloom, there are those which are good but do not prove worthy 
of introduction. These are checked each year but only a few 
can be introduced. The others, many of which are very good 
flowers, will find their way into this better mixture. We offer 
these at $2.50 per dozen, the quantity of these available being 
limited. 
DELPHIN!IUMS 
Seed from selected plants of the finer strains of Del- 
phiniums cross pollenated by hand. A good range of colors 
from plants having good spikes and individual florets from 
2% to 3 inches or more in diameter. Packets of about 100 
seeds for $1.50. Do not confuse this with the cheaper grades 
of seed. 

CLASSIFICATIONS 
DAFFODILS — JONQUILS — NARCISSI 
There is considerable confusion prevailing as to the use of 
the terms, Daffodils, Jonquils, and Narcissi. As the Royal 
Horticultural Society uses the term Daffodi! for all varieties 
and types of the genus, it is so used in this catalogue. Nar- 
cissus is the botanical name of all members of the group and 
while this term is largely used locally to designate only the 
white or smaller flowered kinds, especially the poets, poly- 
anthus, and barrii types, we are calling them all Daffodils. 
Florists frequently incorrectly call the yellow trumpet varie- 
ties jonquils, but true jonquils are members of the group 
having rush shaped leaves and bearing several sweet scented 
yellow blossoms to the stem. 
While we had intended to list all our varieties by classifica- 
tion this year, we believe it will be better to continue our 
alphabetical listing straight through inasmuch as the Royal 
Horticultural Society’s classification is being changed and it 
is likely that next year the change will be made official. Ap- 
parently the chief difference will be that class 4a will become 
2c, and 4b will become 3c. A few other changes will be made. 
An abridged form of the old classification follows: 
Division 1—Trumpet as long or longer than perianth seg- 
ments. 
a. Yellow trumpet and perianth. 
b. White trumpet and perianth. 
c. Trumpet yellow, perianth white or nearly 
white. 
30 
Division 2—Incomparabilis. Cup or crown not less than one- 
third but less than the full length of the 
perianth segments. 
a. Yellow perianth with yellow, orange, or red 
crown. 
b. White or nearly white perianth with yellow, 
orange or red crown. 
3—Barrii. Cup less than one-third the length of the 
perianth segments. 
a» Yellow perianth with yellow, orange or red 
cup. 
b. White or nearly white perianth with yellow, 
orange or red cup. 
Division 
Division 4—Leedsii. Perianth white with crown white, pale 
yellow, buff or pink. 
a. Same dimensions as incomparabilis. 
b. Same dimensions as barrii. 
Division 5—Triandrus hybrids. 
Division 6—Cyclamineus hybrids. 
Division 7—Jonquil hybrids. 
Division 8—Tazetta—includes polyanthus varieties. 
Division 9—Poeticus. 
Division 10—Doubles. 
Division 11—Various—those not included in above classes.
