INCOMPARABILIS OR SHORTCUP DAFFODILS 
The John Evelyn Hybrid Collection 
Every one of these charming flowers is new and each has 
its own unusual color and form. None look alike. Each 
multiplies rapidly and none have to be transplanted to 
maintain free and large blooms. 
Brookville (new) Each 45c; Six $2.35; Doz. $4.10 
A short heavily ruffled cup of pale lemon yellow; heavy, 
broad white petals. 
Duke of Windsor (new) — Each 60c; Six $3.00; Doz. $5.75 
Thick white overlapping petals, cup of pale yellow, very 
flaring, ruffled and short. 
Green Emerald (new) Each 40c; Six $2.25; Doz. $4.00 
This flower has a greenish yellow overcast of various 
shades and intensities. Despite this its petals are towards 
the white, its cup toward a unique lemon yellow. 
Lemon Cup (first time offered) 
Each 45c; Six $2.50; Doz. $4.50 
This is one of the famous “Weatherproof” series. The 
petals are broad and soft cream-white; the strongly 
ruffled flat and flaring crown is very large and of butter- 
cup yellow inside, broadly edged pale yellow. It is tall, 
strong, early and free flowering. 
Leviathan (new) Each 40c; Six $2.25; Doz. $4.00 
Creamy white petals curve back slightly; the cup, ruffled, 
flaring and large, is close to golden yellow. 
Majarda (new) Each 40c; Six $2.25; Doz. $4.00 
Clean white petals and an unusual yellow flaring short 
cup. Tall grower and excellent cut flower. 
Mekkeda (new) Each 45c; Six $2.50; Doz. $4.50

Heavy propagator.

Other New Shortcup Daffodils 
Selma Lagerlof (new) Each 45c; Six $2.35 
Large pure white overlapping petals. Cup is flaring and 
ruffled, soft yellow inside, the wide rim is orange shading 
to red at the edge. 
Bond Street (new) Each 65¢; Six $3.50 
Heavy petals are soft yellow; big ruffled flaring cup, the 
edges in shades of deep orange with faint golden yellow 
markings. (Supply very limited.) 
Carbineer (new) Each 70c¢; Six $3.75 
Both petals and cup are the same color of deepest 
tangerine-orange-yellow, an appalling strain on your 
imagination, we know, but after you’ve seen it try to 
describe it yourself. 
La Argentina (new) Each 60c; Six $3.00 
Large and broad white petals. The body of the cup is 
white but is filled with radiations of blending yellow 
and orange. Unusual and scarce. 
Mrs. Margaret Erskine (new) Each 50c; Six $2.75 
Petals pale yellow and overlapping. Cup is deep yellow 
frilled and wide at the mouth. Exquisitely proportioned. 
Red Marley (new) Each 95c; Six $5.50 
This flower has brilliant tints unusual in daffodils. Petals 
are deep golden yellow. The cup is long and tinted 
copper-red. It multiplies freely. Supply limited. 
Reginald Dixon (new) Each 45c; Six $2.50 
Petals are soft pale yellow. The cup, somewhat flaring, is 
the same soft yellow, delicately edged with orange. 
Six $1.35; Doz. $2.25 
Scarlet Elegance is not brand new like most of these 
shortcups and you may have seen it. We included it for 
personal reasons—we like it. It’s big and tough in wind, 
rain or sun; it’s large with pleasant deep yellow petals 
and the cup, as you would suspect from the name, is a 
brilliant orange-scarlet. 
Scarlet Elegance 
Zarah Leander (new) Each 85c; Six $4.75; Doz. 9.25 
Canary-yellow petals surrounding a large frilled and 
crimped cup which is deep gold-yellow with a suggestion 
of orange on the edge. This is one of the finest of the 
new daffodils but unfortunately it is in very short supply 
and will be for several years. 
POETAZ NARCISSI 
These remarkable hybrids are sweet-scented. They are 
distinguished from other narcissi by their form—three to 
five large, perfectly formed flowers on one strong stem. 
They respond easily to indoor culture. There have been no 
recent introductions. These are the best ones we have 
grown in this group. 
Cheerfulness Six $1.10; Doz. $1.75; 25 $3.25 
Never was a flower better named. Clusters of showy 
double white flowers on exceedingly strong stems. When 
Cheerfulness first opens there is a suggestion of yellow 
in the center which soon fades. It is a late season bloomer; 
a heavy multiplier. 
Early Perfection Six $1.30; Doz. $2.15; 25 $3.75 
Creamy white petals with lemon-yellow cups. 
Helios Six $1.25; Doz. $2.00; 25 $3.50 
The creamy-white petals, slightly crinkled, have a trans- 
lucent quality. Crowns are canary-yellow. There are as 
many as six flowers on a stem. 
Six $1.20; Doz. $1.85; 25 $3.35 
Petals are pure white; cups are a subdued orange with 
yellow centers. 
L’‘Innocence 
Orange Prince Six $1.25; Doz. $2.00; 25 $3.50 
Petals are a rich yellow with a darker, somewhat orange 
cup. 
DOUBLE DAFFODILS 
Only one of these varieties is new; the rest are fine and 
reliable. They have great charm. Plant them in groups 
by themselves. 
Albus Plenus Odoratus Six $1.30; Doz. $2.15 
One of the few daffodils requiring special care but well 
worth it. It is pure white, remarkably fragrant and very 
late. Plant it in shade and when it is in bud, water fre- 
quently to keep the buds from drying out. 
Six $1.35; Doz. $2.25 
Sweet-scented, dainty, pure white and extremely early. 
Holland’s Glory Six $1.35; Doz. $2.25 
A soft, sulphur-yellow double trumpet. It’s a free bloomer, 
multiplies like a rabbit, will prosper anywhere. 
Each 40c; Six $2.25; Doz. $4.00 
This new double is a beauty and neither words nor color 
reproductions do it justice. Its longer petals are cream- 
white with a blending golden ray down the center. The 
shorter petals are a mixture of lemon and orange. These 
four tones are harmonious and we suggest planting in 
groups. Mary Copeland cuts well, too.
