ACTAEA (Lubbe) 1927— The largest Poeticus in 
existence. Broad snow-white perianth of great sub- 
stance and good form; the very large eye is broadly 
margined with dark red. A most beautiful exhibition 
flower. per 100, $7.00 
ADA FINCH (de Graaff) 1927—One of the very 
earliest daffodils to flower. Pure white, overlapping 
perianth; large, finely shaped trumpet with deeply 
flanged and rolled rim. The immense flower is carried 
on a tall, stiff stem and the entire plant is beautifully 
proportioned. In contrast with many of the British 
white trumpet daffodils, Ada Finch is pure Ajax and 
represents the culmination of fifty years of breeding 
white trumpets. Immensely valuable for breeding as its 
good characteristics, earliness, size and purity of color 
are carried over into its seedlings. A.M.H. 1927. F.C. 
C.H. 1930. per 100, $50.00 
ADLER (de Graaff) 1929 — A universal favorite both 
among exhibitors and amateurs; a really marvelous 
flower with perianth of the purest white, overlapping 
and opening nearly flat, circular in outline and 4 inches 
across, with a beautifully proportioned cup of pure 
chrome yellow, shading to blood-orange at the deeply 
frilled edge; the most admired flower in many large 
collections. A.M. 1928, A.M.H. 1928. per 100, $10.00 
AEROLITE (de Graaff) 1923— Here is a golden 
daffodil that is replacing many of the present varieties 
as it becomes available; the large flower is beautifully 
proportioned, giving the impression of gracefulness, 
despite its size; perianth deep primrose, with a pure 
medium yellow trumpet which is left in bold relief by 
the broad pointed star formed by the flat opening outer 
petals, an inch and a half wide; medium early, but 
remains until late, and is one of the longest lasting of 
all daffodils either in the garden or after being cut. 
per 100, $6.00 
ALAMEIN (Rich.) 1944—A lovely flower of the high- 
est quality, with beautifully smooth, broad, flat clear 
golden yellow perianth segments, very slightly pointed 
at the tips, and a rather straight well-frilled medium- 
sized cup of intense deep solid orange-red. Tall, strong- 
stemmed, vigorous plant. A.M.(e) 1945. 
each, $10.00 
ALASKA (de Graaff) 1928—Giant flower of deepest 
gold; more graceful than most of the giant Ajax varie- 
ties as the trumpet is deeply frilled and recurved. This 
variety has been thoroughly tested in the greenhouse 
and on the Eastern cutflower markets and shows 
unusual promise as a future florist’s flower. Excellent 
for pots. per 100, $8.00

ALASNAM (de Graaff) 1923—Wide, short, densely 
frilled trumpet of pure deep yellow, a shade deeper 
than the perianth; finely placed with good neck; flower 
“looks you in the eye’’; excellent for landscape groups, 
also for forcing; very early and therefore in great 
demand by discriminating florists who want something 
earlier and better than King Alfred. per 100, $8.00 
ALBUS PLENUS ODORATUS (Poeticus flore pleno) 
—Snowy white, sweet-scented, highly recommended, 
pure white double Poeticus. Flowers satisfactorily only 
in cool, moist climate: per 100, $6.00 
ALCIDA (Backhouse) 1923—Giant flower, creamy 
perianth opening flat, star-shaped, with individual 
petals over 144 inches wide; broad citron-yellow cup 
with blood-orange frill; strong grower, fine substance 
and wonderfully free-flowering; very late. A.M.H. 
1921. per 100, $6.00 
ANNA BRITA (de Graaff) 1941—A very beautiful 
Poetaz of outstanding quality. Pure white perianth of 
heavy texture and well overlapping; bright red crowns, 
nicely crinkled. A.M.H. 1942. per 100, $60.00 
ANZIO (Rich.) 1945—A brilliant large flower, bred 
from Clava x Hades, with very rounded, overlapping 
pure white perianth and a large bowl-shaped cup of 
intense solid deep orange-red, making a striking con- 
trast in colors. each, $1.50 
APRICOT (de Graaff) 1898—The first of the buff- 
tinged trumpet daffodils raised by de Graaff. A sensa- 
tional flower when first introduced, it is, of course, now 
far surpassed by many other varieties and is of histori- 
cal interest only. A.M. 1898. None for sale 
2b ASMODE (de Graaff) 1930—Very large flaring cup of 
2a 
3a 
deep yellow with distinct orange margin; petals pure 
white, well rounded and overlapping. Large flower, 
fully 4 inches across. A particularly fine show-flower. 
A.M.H. 1930. per 100, $12.00 
BACKHOUSE’S GIANT (Backhouse) 1936—Finely 
proportioned, deep golden yellow star-shaped perianth. 
Cup narrow and long, almost of trumpet daffodil pro- 
portions and colored deepest orange-red. This is the 
closest thing to a red trumpet daffodil and should have 
great value in breeding. A.M.H. 1948. each $6.00 
BATH’S FLAME (Bath) 1914—Yellow perianth with 
darker cup, deeply edged orange-scarlet. A.M. 1915. 
per 100, $6.00
