Elvira, a very pleasing double white Poetaz, good stems, 
a fine garden and show flower. F.C.C. 1939, A.M. (e) 
1926, A.M. (g) 1935. per 100, $5.00 
CHEERIO (Brodie) 1932—Fine, colorful garden va- 
riety of merit. The immensely broad, quite circular, 
soft yellow perianth has great substance. The widely 
expanded, frilled, bowl-shaped crown is a_ bright 
orange-red. Tall, vigorous and a good increaser. A.M. 
(g) 1941. per 100, $30.00 
CHEYENNE (Powell) 1946—A white Jonquil hybrid, 
2 inches in diameter, bearing two or three flowers on a 
twelve inch stem. Broad, pointed and well-overlapping 
petals; beautifully flared ivory cup three-fourths inch 
in diameter, with crinkled edge. An American intro- 
duction of real merit. per 100, $10.00 
CHINA CLAY (Brodie-Calvert) 1928—In our opinion 
one of the prettiest pure white daffodils. The entire 
flower is glistening white, the perianth is star-shaped 
and the trumpet is rather narrow, nicely frilled at the 
rim. The foliage is greenish-blue. An extraordinary 
flower for cutting and for corsages but equally fine for 
garden decoration. A large bowl of China Clay, inter- 
spersed with flowers of Mrs. R. O. Backhouse, the pink 
daffodil, is a sight never to be forgotten. per 100, $75.00 
CHINESE WHITE (Guy L. Wilson) 1937—A very 
large flower of quite faultless form and quality; abso- 
lutely pure white throughout except for a faint touch 
of green in the eye; very broad circular satin-smooth 
perianth of great substance fully 414 inches in di- 
ameter. Perfectly proportioned shallow fluted saucer 
cup. A superb show flower and quite unique. This is 
the first really flat crowned Leedsii and should be ex- 
tremely valuable for breeding. A.M. 1946, F.C.C. 1949. 
each, $16.00 
CHUNKING (Wilson) 1942—Large, tall stemmed cir- 
cular flower having a very broad smooth clear golden 
perianth and intense deep vivid red shallow crown. 
A.M.H. 1948. each $5.00 
CLAIRETTE (de Graaff) 1938—Very flat, silvery 
white perianth of fine proportions, broad, trumpet-like 
crown of purest creamy white coloring. This is one of 
the finest Giant Leedsii raised in Holland. A.M.H. 1938. 
each, $1.00

CONBEG (Wilson) 1944—About the first red and 
white flower of true Incomparabilis form, in which the 
perianth can be said to have attained real Poeticus 
white. The cup is deep red and goblet shaped. 
each, $3.00 
CONTENT (Will, P.D.) 1927—A beautiful large, 
tall, early bicolor of splendid form and carriage. The 
color is the much sought-after lemon-green, bleaching 
to ivory. Petals are extremely broad at base and overlap 
greatly. A.M. (e) 1940. each, $3.00 
CORALIE (Australian)—A very pretty short-cupped 
pink daffodil, sent to us by Alister Clark. The petals 
are pure white and rather pointed, the short cup is of a 
soft rose-pink color, flaring and frilled. Fine exhibition 
flower and good pollen parent. each, $4.00 
CORINTH (Brodie) 1928—An immense flower, very 
stiff substance, fine broad, flat white perianth, standing 
at right angles to the bold ivory trumpet. each $1.20 
COVERACK PERFECTION (Brodie) Calvert 1930, 
A.M. 1934—Broad, white perianth, with large shallow 
saucer crown, edged and flushed with pale salmon- 
gold, striking. each, $2.40 
CROESUS ( Will.) 1912—Universally popular both for 
the garden and for exhibition; light canary-yellow per- 
ianth of perfect form, with outer petals nearly touching, 
the inner ones overlapping, opening flat; broad fluted 
cup of rich orange to base; substantial, free-flowering, 
and a fine propagator; desirable in every way. F.C.C. 
1912, A.M. (g) 1914. per 100, $6.00 
CYCLAMINEUS (Baker) 1887—The yellow cycla- 
men-flowered daffodil. This beautiful little daffodil was 
found by the late Mr. Peter Barr in Spain and Portugal, 
at the margin of mountain streams and in flooded 
meadows adjoining; the moister the situation, the finer 
were the blooms. It is the earliest of all daffodils, flow- 
ering from the middle of February to early March and 
is a charming, elegant little flower of very distinct 
form. The trumpet is rich yellow, straight and tube- 
like, elegantly serrated at mouth, while the perianth 
is reflexed like a cyclamen. A valuable little species for 
pot culture, edgings, and to naturalize in damp spots 
in the rock garden, in grass and in shady nooks, or at 
the water’s edge; it delights in a dampish sandy peat 
soil and should be left undisturbed for years. Height 
6 inches. F.C.C. 1887. ji 
DACTYL (Engle.) 1923—A.M.H. 1929, A.M. (e) 
1931. Very large and beautifully clean-cut perianth of 
mathematical evenness and extraordinary solid, smooth 
substance. Large broad, flat citron eye edged with a 
boldly defined rim of deep red. Lovely for cutting. 
per 100, $20.00
