BLUE RIBBON WINNERS 
If you would like to win a lot of Blue Ribbons at your Daffodil 
Show next Spring, — and who wouldn't, — here is a list of a number 
of varieties in each Division, which should do that for you. Most 
of them have received R. H. S. Awards of Merit (A. M.) and /or 
First Class Certificates (F. C. C.) in the (not too distant) past,— 
many very recently, — and have been consistent winners in Shows 
here and in England the past few years. By purchasing first quality 
bulbs of these varieties, planting them in good well drained soil, and 
providing some protection from wind and storm (by planting on the 
leaward side of a garden fence or hedge, or the use of burlap wind- 
breaks; mulching with peat-moss etc. to prevent their being splashed 
by heavy rains, etc.) they should bring home for you more than your 
share of the Ribbons. If this protection cannot be provided, the 
flowers should be cut as soon as they are fully developed, or even 
before, with long stemmed varieties, — and kept in a cool dark place 
until the Show. 
In each Class we list first the lower priced varieties, mostly 
those priced at not much over $1.00, then after a space ( - - ) the 
rare new ones, (- - - ) and finally the new introductions of the 
Oregon Bulb Farms (these latter have not been shown in competi- 
tion, but they compare very favorably with the other new ones).
