FARQUHAR’S POLYANTHUS NARCISSI. 
If by Parcel Post add postage at zone rates; 2 lbs. per doz.; 12 lbs. per 100. 
VERY decorative class of bulbous plants for green-house and window cultivation, but not hardy out of doors in our climate. They 
produce enormous trusses of delicately fragrant flowers, varying in color from snowy white to deep yellow. ‘Treat the bulbs in the 
same manner as noted for Hyacinths, except that the bulbs should be set half an inch deeper in the soil. They may be easily and 
quickly forced; our florists frequently have them in bloom by Thanksgiving. 2

Polyanthus Narcissus, Paper White. 
NARCISSI] POETAZ HYBRIDS. 
These new hybrids are the result of a cross between Poeticus Ornatus and Poly- 
anthus Varieties, and are strong, healthy growers. They have the delicious 
fragrance of the former, combined with the free-flowering qualities of the 
latter, each stem carrying from three to six flowers. The bulbs are quite 
hardy and if planted in permanent groups in the hardy garden soon form 
large, luxuriant clumps. They can also be grown in pots for winter flower- 
ing.
