New Daffodil Classification 
The world has adopted a revised daffodil classification which became effective on Jan. 1, 
1950. It was proposed by the Royal Horticultural Society after years of careful study. We 
have adopted this listing in our catalog this year. For the convenience of our customers, we 
reproduce this new classification table in greatly abbreviated form. In our 1951 catalog 
we will print the entire revision. 
Division 1. Trumpet Narcissus. 
Division 2. Large Cupped Narcissus (Including the old Incomparabilis and Giant Leedsi 
types). 
Division 3. Small Cupped Narcissus (Including the Barri and true Leedsi types). 
Division 4. Double Narcissus. 
Division 5. Triandus hybrids. 
Division 6. Cyclamineus hybrids. 
Division 7. Jonquil hybrids. 
Division 8. Tazetta Narcissus (The Poetaz Types). 
Division 9. Poeticus Narcissus. 
Division 10. Species and wild forms and their hybrids.
