flower. 30c each. 
WILD ROSE 
WILD ROSE (Brodie) 2b LM. 18”. A small to medium sized flower 
of quite good form, having pure white perianth, and a good 
sized crown of pink. In favorable years it comes deep, almost 
rose pink. $1.00 each. 
YELLOW CHEERFULNESS (EFggink Bros.) 4 M. 22”. A delightful 
flower with clusters of small double blossoms just like its 
counterpart, Cheerfulness, except for color, this being an at- 
tractive deep lemon yellow. 50c each. 
ZERO (G. L. Wilson) 2c E. 24”. A magnificent giant snowy white 
flower. Flat, overlapping perianth with pointed petals, and a 
long well balanced, nicely frilled crown. Is very white on first 
opening and lasts a long time. A really fine white Daffodil. 
$3.00 each. 
ZEST (Mitsch) 1b EM. 24”. A sister seedling to Silverdale. Very 
vigorous and prolific, making many blooms on long, strong 
stems, with flat overlapping perianths and pale yellow trumpets 
fading to cream. A good garden flower and nice for cutting. 
Due to a large stock, we offer at 70c each this year. 
DAFFODIL SEED 
Again we offer Daffodil seed from specific hand crosses. Inas- 
much as inclement weather often prevails during the blooming 
season, and due to the fact that certain crosses do not always 
“take” we ask that you give second choice in case the preferred 
lot fails to set or is sold out. All seed orders should be in before 
September Ist as we sow seed on Labor Day. Four to six years are 
required for seed to bloom. We somehow failed to get out plant- 
ing instructions with seed last year but will endeavor to have a 
leaflet to accompany seed orders this time. Subject to crop, we 
offer the following crosses.

MIXTURES 
From our testing grounds, we have thousands of seedlings yearly 
which are of insufficient merit to warrant selection with a view 
to further observation and perhaps eventual introduction, and 
among these are many that are as fine as ordinary named va- 
rieties. These bulbs are offered in mixture at the nomnial price 
of $7.50 per 100 for double nose bulbs; or $4.50 per 100 round 
bulbs, all blooming size. In addition, we have occasionally surpluses 
of some named varieties, and others which we consider no longer 
profitable to grow or not good enough in view of other similar 
but better ones. These, too, we offer in mixture at the same price 
as the seedlings but we ask that you do not request any particu- 
lar types or colors as we do not have time to make individual 
selections at the time of filling orders. Eventually, we may have 
mixtures of various types grown separately. It is very doubtful if 
we can supply the mixture in named varieties late in the season, 
and unless instructed otherwise, we will fill late orders with seed- 
lings if we run short of the other mixture. The above prices are 
not prepaid. Round bulbs would perhaps be more economically 
sent by parcel post and figure abount nine pounds per 100 
packed. Postage to eighth zone is $1.39 on this amount. 
In addition to the general mixtures listed above, we have a 
“Better Mixture” made up of one bulb each of 12 different se- 
lected seedlings, at $3.25 per dozen; or 24, all different, for $6.00. 
These come in mixture only and are not labeled as to number or 
parentage, but include some very interesting and striking flowers.
