and will be of value to anyone especially interested in Daffodils. The 
price is $3.50, postpaid. 
ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY 
Classified List of Daffodil Names 
This is a list of all the Daffodil varieties registered with the 
Royal Horticultural Society, of London, in the past 50 years or so,— 
something over 12,000 names,—and giving the Classification of each 
variety. A valuable reference book,—almost a “must” for those who 
are sponsoring Daffodil Shows. The price, for the latest edition, is 
$1.00, postpaid. 
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 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, plant- 
ing 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 windbreaks; mulching with peat- 
moss, etc. to prevent their being splashed by heavy rains, etc.) they 
should bring home for you your share of the Ribbons. If this protec- 
tion 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. 
Most of the varieties listed below, in the various Classes, will 
be found in the general list of Choice varieties, pages 6 to 11; those 
separated from the others by a space (- - -) are the new Jan de Graff 
(Oregon Bulb Farms) originations, on pages 11-12. These Oregon 
varieties have not as yet been widely shown, but they will compare 
very favorably with the others.
