[He wbisebaard Funquilia, ot Rufh Daffedill, hath two or three 
- large green leaves, not altogether fo round or Ry Kiar as 
thofé of the fore-inentioned kinds 5. the’ ftalk is about half a foor 
high, bearing at the top one {mall white flower with fix fmall and 
fhort leaves, ftanding about the middle of the trunck, which is long 
and very wide open at the brims, the fimall outer leaves area little 
greenifh, and the great trunck is milk-white, 
Pfendonarciffus Funcifolius luteus major. 
3 Bad great yellow baftard Funguilia hath bigger, longer, and broq= 
- der green leaves than the former, the ftalk is higher, and the 
flower larger and more open at the mouth than the white; and 
wholly of a yellow colour : Of this there is another fort that 
no way differeth from it, but im that ic is leffer in: all the parts 
thereof ; there is likewife.a third, thar is like the great yellow, 
but fairer, and flowereth a moneth after it). in all other parts

All thefe ba/fard Funquilias flower in March, except the laft,which

The greateft number of the Daffodils are hardy ,. and increafe ex 
ceedingly in almoft any foil, and {ome of them are very tender , and 
muft be planted in good earth, a warm place, and defended from 
Frofts in Winter, fuchare the double white Daffidills of Virginia, 
» the double yellow of Cyprus, and thofe of Conftantinople , and indeed 
all chofe that bear many flowers on one ftalk , are more tender than 
the other forts, therefore it will be convenient to place them all roge- 
ther under fome South wall, where they may ftand unremoved many 
years, in refpect they are not very apt taoff-fer; neither do they 
—_ yearly, unlefs chey be taken upylofe all their fibres , fo that by long 
_ ftanding ina place the roots will grow great, and the floivers willbe 
many and fair 5 all che othet forts that bear but one: flower, may be 
taken up in the beginning of Fune, and kept dry untill: September, 
the Sea Daffodil, and thofe of imdia excepted , which-hold their, - 
fibres, and muft not be removed but uponnecefsity , and then plan- 
ted again as foon as may be,’ | 
The Sea Daffedill is far more hardy than thofe of Zudia,which re-' 
quire to be ed in boxes, and houted in winter, bueche other may 
e fet under a fourth wall where it may ftand twenty years without rey
