Narcissus is represented by the charming Angel’s Tears Daffodil 
(N. triandrus), from Spain and Portugal, and the “ Petticoat 
Daffodil” or “ Hoop-Skirt Daffodil” (N. Bulbocodium), South- 
ern France to Morocco. Both of these are on the border line of 
hardiness with us, but they came through last winter very success- 
fully and we are hopeful for the future. 
There is a miniature replica of the trumpet daffodils that may 
in some years be seen in our Rock Garden. This is Narcissus 
minimus which grows only three inches high. Unfortunately, it 
is not very permanent. 
Non-bulbous plants are now beginning to give a better account 
of themselves. The Himalayan Primrose (Primula denticulata) 
produces its lavender flowers in dense globular heads, and various 
forms of the Auricula (?. Auricula) display their umbels of 
sweetly scented blossoms. We envy the English the myriads of 
handsome primroses available for their rock gardens. Correvon
