CURRIE BROS. CO. AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1925 



NARCISSUS 



DAFFODILS 



No class of bulbs is more satisfactory and none so easily 

 taken care of as the Daffodils. They appear just after the 

 snow and ice of winter and enliven our gardens and lawns. 

 Nothing can excell the beauty and chastity of their blooms, 

 and they have the advantage of being good for an unlimited 

 number' of seasons, if planted out in some spot where they 

 can be allowed to mature their foliage. They are perfectly 

 hardy and withstand severe winters without protection. 

 Should be given the same treatment as recommended for 

 Hyacinths, either for indoor or outdoor cultivation. 



The Poeticus varieties have short crowns or cups; the 

 Incomparabilis, medium crowns; the others listed, long 

 trumpet shaped crowns.

NOTE— The Federal Horticultural Board has 

 given notice that no Narcissus or Daffodil 

 Bulbs may be imported for sale after January 

 1st, 1926. Last chance to get Holland-grown 

 bulbs v/hich produce large, perfect flowers. 



Make permanent plantings of Narcissus 

 bulbs in clusters or patches in odd corners, 

 in the herbaceous or shrubbery borders, in the 

 woods or on the bank of lake or stream. The 

 effect is invariably charming. Poeticus is 

 particularly effective when "naturalized" in 

 this manner, but all the hardy varieties may 

 be so treated.
