farquHar's polyanthus narcissi. 



If by mail, add 10 cents per dozen for postage. 



AVERY decorative class of bulbous plants for green-house and window cultivation, but not hardy out of doors in our climate. Thev 

 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. 



POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS. 

 Early Large=Flowering Paper White. The largest, an 



vigorous form of the Paper White; the best of all for very early 

 pure white. They can also be grown in water with pebbles in

These new hybrids are the result of a cross between Poeticus 

 Ornatus and Polyanthus Varieties, and are strong, healthy

 combined with the free-flowering quahties 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, lirxuriant clumps. They 

 can also be grown in pots for winter flowerin<^.
