10 PETEK HENDERSON" & CO., NEW YORK:.— HIGH GRADE BULBS.— WHOLESALE. 



J^argissus or "Daffodils. 



THE MOST POPULAR. BUMl OF THE PERIOD. 



Narc ! ssus are now forced in immense quantities; their graceful form, 

 soft perfume and rich colors make them much sought after for 

 bouquets, vase and corsage flowers, by ladies during the winter months. 

 Their ease of culture, quick and sure blooming qualities and the reason- 

 able cost of the bulbs render them more popular each.season. 



NOTE.— In describing Narcissus we have referred to the " perianth" and "trumpet." The latter iklfi 

 is the long centre, funnel-tike tube, and the "perianth ' is the surrounding row of petals or leaves.
