PETER HENDERSON & CO.— NARCISSUS. 



Henflerson's * Superfi * Narcissus 



Daffodils, Daffadillies, Daffadowndillies. 



The wonderful creations in the way of new varieties, has awakened an 

 interest and enthusiasm among the lovers of flowers that has placed this, 

 "The Flower of the Poets," in the front rank of popularity, __= 

 and they merit all the praise that can be bestowed upon them. 

 Appearing, as they do, just after bleak winter, they turn our gardens, 

 lawns and woodlawn walks into gorgeous masses of gold and silver, g a B |j 

 with a fragrance that is enchanting. They are equally valuable for 

 growing in pots for winter flowering, and some of the varieties are jSgl 

 forced in immense quantities by florists for cut flowers in winter. ||k§| 

 Narcissus are of the easiest culture, and all excepting the Polyanthus 

 varieties on page 17 are perfectly hardy. Our collection has been ||jg| 

 much enriched and embraces in addition to the old favorites, many |3% 

 new varieties, including the magnificent new hybrids. We are 3j*m 

 also importing direct from China, some of the genuine and J£?3= 

 wonderful "Chinese Oriental Narois- ^a 8B 



8us," called by the natives "Joss Flower," .s^fef^ 



or " Flower of the Gods." ( See page 17.)
