DICK WELLBAND (Backhouse - de Graaff)— 
One of our finest introductions, very strong 
grower and exceptionally free-flowering. The 
perianth is pure white and the cup flame orange. 
One of its most remarkable qualities is that the 
color does not fade but rather intensifies with 
age. The flower lasts unusually long and we be- 
lieve that this variety will be of greatest value 
both for greenhouse work or for the outside. Its 
great beauty lies in the startling contrast between 
petals and cup which makes it stand out in the 
largest collection of daffodils. A worthy com- 
panion to Francisca Drake. A.M.H. 1931. 
per 100, $6.00 
DIOTIMA (de Graaff) — Considered by many 
experts as the very best of the new super-giant 
yellow trumpets; despite its huge size (perianth 
being five to six inches across) the whole flower 
is beautifully proportioned and is carried grace- 
fully on flattened tapering stems, two feet tall, 
entirely free from the amaryllis-like stiffmess of 
many of the giant trumpets; the broad overlap- 
ping petals form a star-shaped perianth of me- 
dium deep primrose, trumpet somewhat more 
deeply colored; undoubtedly one of the top- 
notchers for many years to come. per 100, $12.00 
DISTINGUE (Backhouse) — Large, perianth is 
widespread, pure white color, smooth texture, 
cup is tinged with pale lemon. —_ per 100, $50.00 
DUKE OF WINDSOR (Uittenboogaard) — 
Broad, white, overlapping perianth and large, 
short and flaring yellow cup. We have only a 
small stock of this variety and cannot quote it 
competitively. per 100, $30.00 
E. H. WILSON (de Graaff)—Of most lovely form 
and perfect texture, broad overlapping pure 
white perianth but distinctly star-shaped as 
petals are nicely pointed. Crown light yellow but 
passing to ivory, shallow and fluted at margin. 
A fine, tall garden plant of unusual substance 
and great merit. The flowers last unusually well 
and are magnificent for show purposes as well 
as for home decoration. A.M. 1936. per 100, $6.00 
FIRETAIL (Crosfield)—Deservedly popular the 
world over; broad petaled creamy-white perianth 
and large orange cup with scarlet-orange frill.

FEBRUARY GOLD (de Graaff) A.M. 1928—A 
little known, extremely early blooming, small 
golden daffodil. The perianth is rather star- 
shaped, the nicely fluted, straight trumpet is 
tinged with orange. A hybrid between N. cycla- 
mineus and a trumpet daffodil, it has retained 
all the earliness of its parents and forces ex- 
tremely well. Start a few bulbs in pebbles and 
water in November, keep bowls or pans in a 
dark, cool place for three weeks and then bring 
into light. Or, plant from three to six bulbs in 
a pot in October and keep pot in a cool, dark 
place, watering as needed. They will easily bloom 
by Christmas. February Gold is one of our own 
introductions. per 100, $6.00 
FORTUNE (Ware)—Broad creamy yellow per- 
ianth of very solid texture, crown of great size 
and elegant form, opening at mouth and beau- 
tifully frilled, of a glowing soft orange. A Giant 
Incomparabilis of perfect form, early, a strong 
grower. Undoubtedly will soon become one of 
the more popular varieties. F.C.C. 1924 (e.g.c.). 
per 100, $9.00 
FORTUNE’S BOWL (Brodie) Calvert—A good 
yellow perianth and deep red cup. A.M. (m) 
1940, the finest of the Fortune seedlings. 
per 100, $21.00 
FORTUNE'S CREST (Brodie) A.M. (e) 1931— 
Good yellow perianth and deepest solid red cup 
of any flower yet raised from Fortune. 
per 100, $50.00 
FORTY-NINER (O.B.F.)—A rather early, very 
short N. triandrus hybrid with pale sulphur- 
yellow flowers. The cup is long and bell-shaped, 
nicely fluted. As many as four flowers per stem. 
The narrow foliage is deep green and lax, a good 
grower and most attractive little plant for the 
rock garden. each, $9.00 
FRANCISCA DRAKE (Backhouse)—Impossible 
to describe adequately the beauty of this un- 
usual flower of a distinct new type; the pure 
white perianth petals are of unusual substance, 
an inch and a half wide, and tinted gold at the 
base, which shows through on the outside; the 
cup, wide and deep, is golden yellow at the base, 
changing gradually to flame orange at the 
densely frilled edge; the flowers are held well 
above the fine foliage and give the effect of a 
flock of white seagulls taking flight; strong- 
growing and very free-flowering. A.M. 1926. 
per 100, $6.00 
GALWAY (Rich.) F.C.C. (e) 1948 — A glorious 
tall strong-stemmed intense self-golden flower, 
bordering on true trumpet daffodil proportions; 
broad smooth perianth, well-flanged trumpet 
crown. Splendid size, build, proportion, stature 
and color; a magnificent garden plant and a 
grand show flower. each, $3.00
