New Hardy Cluster- 
flowered Daffodils. | 
NARCISSUS POETAZ. 
These new hybrids are a cross between the Poeticus and Poly- 
anthus types, partaking largely of the former in the size and 
form of the individual flowers, and also inherits the strong free 
growth and hardiness of their Poeticus parentage, In the manner 
of producing their flowers in clusters, and in extreme free-flower- 
ing qualities, they possess all the merits of the Polyanthus type. 
Make splendid beds or clumps in borders, and are easily flowered 
in the house in winter. We offer three fine varieties. (See

Chinese Sacred Lily. 
(Soy Sin Far, Joss Flower, or Flower of the Gods.) 
This is the Narcissus Orientalis, and the variety grown by 
Chinamen for decorating their temples or Joss-houses on their 
New Year’s Day, which occurs in February. For the most part 
they are grown in water in fancy bowls, with just enough pebbles 
around them to keep them from toppling over. They can also 
be grown in pots in soil, sand or moss. We annually import 
from China a large quantity of the finest quality bulbs, and if 
planted on arrival (about October 1st) they will flower by 
Christmas, and a succession of flowers can be had by making 
several plantings The white and yellow flowers are borne in 
clusters, and are highly scented. Large bulbs, 10 cts. each; 
3 for 25 cts.; 90 cts. per doz. - Original baskets, containing 30 
bulbs, $2.00.
