BRENT HEATH giving a workshop and sem i nar in New Bedford, MA

Northeast Regional Daffodil Show held in the Fern Room at Longwood Gardens.

"DAFFODIL WALK" at New York Botanic Garden co-sponsored by the Greenwich GC, the NYBG and the Daffodil Mart.

To all Daffodil Fanciers:

We are pleased to present "Daffodils for Show and Gar- den". We hope that this will be the first in a series of color identification guide booklets on daffodils for American gar- deners. The flowers in this booklet were pictured, almost exclusively, as they grew in our fields in Gloucester, Virginia. Color and size can sometimes vary according to climate and soil conditions. Since these conditions can be extremely dif- ferent across the country, please keep in mind that your daffs may differ slightly from ours in hue or size. We hope this guide booklet will help you in identifying cultivars in your garden, in choosing new cultivars, and in being a more suc- cessful exhibitor and grower.

Nothing beats seeing the flowers in person. So, plan to visit one of the following gardens listed below where there are good representative daffodil collections; visit one of the many daffodil shows listed in the ADS Journal or visit The Daffodil Mart (by appointment) on one of its "Open Garden" weekends in the spring.

Please let us know how we can help with daffodil needs or questions. We are also available for consultation and lectures.

Happy Daffodilling!

DAFFODIL CULTURE

Daffodils have four basic requirements to grow well and produce abundant quality flowers: proper soil conditions, nutrition, sunlight and water,

First, pick your site and prepare your beds ahead of time. Daffodils grow best in full sun, however, some reds and pinks benefit when grown in partial shade by producing more color- ful blossoms. The bulbs are tolerant of up to 1/2 day shade.

For show flowers, one should consider a site with wind protection, i.e. hedges or windbreaks.

A spot with excellent drainage is of utmost importance. One can improve a poorly drained site with the installation of drainage tiles, by raising beds and/or the addition of well decomposed organic material and sand.

Proper fertilization will keep your daffodils blooming for seasons to come. Daffodils prefer low nitrogen/moderate phosphorous/high potash fertilizer with trace elements made available during their entire growth season — fall to spring. We recommend a top dressing (as opposed to putting fertil- izer in the bed as this may tend to burn the bulbs and cause them to rot) in the fall after planting (this type of slow release fertilizer may be obtained from The Daffodil Mart through our mailorder catalogue). For organic nutrients, use a little cotton- seed or Blood Meal for nitrogen — Bone Meat for phosphor- ous and calcium — and New Jersey Greensand or wood ashes for potash. BONE MEAL IS NOT A COMPLETE BULB FOOD! Bone meal to bulbs equates to broccoli to humans in that, although broccoli is a very nutritious vegetable, a diet of broccoli alone would leave us rather weak and unhealthy. Unfortunately, bone meal also attracts rodents and dogs, who may dig up your bulbs to get to the bone meal.

Watering your bulbs may be necessary if you do not get sufficient rain ( 1/2 inch per week generally). Water is needed in the fall to assure good root growth before freezing weather sets in; again in the spring when active top growth starts; and in April and May, the most critical time, when the bulbs are manufacturing food for next years bloom. A soaker hose like "Leaky Pipe Soaker" is excellent for this.

To keep flowers up to "show quality' size, the bulbs should probably be dug every 3 to 5 years. Dig about eight weeks after the flowers bloom when the foliage begins to turn yellow but before it disappears completely. If you prefer, you may separate the bulbs and plant them right back the same day they were dug.

Daffodils make wonderful companion plants in perennial gardens and borders. Don't be afraid to experiment with dif- ferent combination plantings!

We hope the above is informative and will help you in having a more beautiful garden and in winning many blue ribbons!

THE DAFFODIL MART'S CONNOISSEUR GARDENER'S LIST

Dear Customers and Friends, For those of you that are new customers, let us

introduce ourselves. We are a third generation bulb grower who sells and enjoys all types of bulbs, but who specializes in and hybridizes daffodils. We work directly with excellent growers who raise our seedlings and selections for increase so that the commercial market will have the opportunity to enjoy the newer cultivars at a fair price.

We are bringing you the Connoisseur Gardener's List, a selection of superior bulbs that we have used and seen used effectively and efficiently in a number of gardens both here and abroad. Most are excellent new cultivars that have passed the initiation test in gardens and fields and are ready to add splendour to yours. Other cultivars are just those marvelous tried and true favorites that deserve a place in every garden. On the first page of the list are prices of the pictured daffodils in "Daffodils For Show and Garden". As you will notice, several have not had item #'s assigned to them and in the price colomn it says, "N/A". This means that these few items are not available this year but we are sure you can find others similar that will fit your needs. We are excited and pleased to offer you this list. Some will be shipped from our farm and others directly from our Dutch warehouse. Prices are down, so take advantage of this opportunity! Please order as early as possible as some unusual cultivars are available only in the early season. For more detailed information and more color pictures, there is a wonderful book called SPRING FLOWERING BULBS, available to you on page #6.

We have designed a couple of tools that help one to be a very efficient bulb planter and gardener. They are called the "Heavy Duty Bulb Planter" and the "Naturalizing Tool" and both can be found and described on page #5 of the list. Fertilizing bulbs properly can be the difference between long-term success and failure of a garden. Our Slo-Release fertilizer for your success can be found on page #6.

EACH BULB IS PRICED ACCORDING TO OUR STANDARD PACK QUANTITIES. PLEASE ORDER IN THOSE QUANTITIES OR IN MULTIPLES THEREOF.WE SHIP UPS IN THE FALL WHEN IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO PLANT IN YOUR AREA. INCLUDING YOUR "PLANT ZONE" MAY BE HELPFUL

We do have a Wholesale Catalogue available to those of you who order bulbs in large quantities, either for re-sale or as a large planting project. If you'd like one, please let us know, being specific which catalogue is needed. We will also be sending a "Forcer's List" out in.August of bulbs specifically designed for indoor forcing. All of our previous customers will receive this, but if you have not ordered from us before, and are interested in forcing bulbs, you may also request one of these.

We are always happy to help you in anyway we can. The FAX is a marvelous machine in which to ask questions and receive answers at everyone's convenience. However, if you don't have access to one, give us a call, or drop us a note and let us know how we can help you. We look forward to serving your bulb needs!
