WITH BRIGHT COLOR CONTRASTS

narcissi. This one has the largest flowers, pure white with a generous 
bright red eye. Excellent for planting in the garden and for naturalizing.

DAMSON—(M). A superb variety with pure white overlapping petals 
and frilled crown of pure gold. Long, strong stems support flowers of 
fine substance. Each 30c, 12 for $3.00, 100 for $20.00.

white perianth opens flat, measuring often 4 or 5 inches across and 
supporting a 2-inch wide flat cup which is densely frilled and fluted, 
lemon yellow. Each 40c, 12 for $4.00, 100 for $30.00. 
MRS. BARCLAY—(M). Flowers are spectacular. Overlapping pale 
primrose petals. Frilled primrose-yellow cup enhanced with orange mar- 
gin. Each 25c, 12 for $2.50, 100 for $17.50.

glowing orange crown. Crown is handsomely flared and frilled at the 
margin. Each 30c, 12 for $3.00, 100 for $20.00. 
THE FINEST PINK DAFFODIL 
MRS. R. O. BACKHOUSE—(E). The famous Pink Trumpet Daffodil. 
This is truly one of the most beautiful of all varieties for the well-pro- 
portioned flowers. The color combination is especially pleasing with the 
ivory white petals and long narrow trumpet of shell pink with deeply 
fringed edge. Each 75c, 12 for $7.50.

i#— PLANT —>€BLOOM—: 

Your best garden investment in flowers for spring color is 
daffodils. Most varieties increase rapidly under average 
garden conditions, supplying your garden and home with 
more flowers each season without further investment. To 
promote daffodil bulb increase, apply a balanced fertilizer 
over the bed after the blooming season and maintain soil 
moisture through the summer. Lift, divide and replant 
every three years. 
MORE BLOOMS FOR YOUR MONEY! 
All our daffodil bulbs are DOUBLE-NOSE No. 1, which 
means that each bulb is capable of producing two or more 
large flowers the spring following planting. Ordinary bulbs 
are no bargain at their slightly lower cost.
