Narcissus Poetici'S Ornatus. 



The Poet's Narcissus. 



(Narcissus Poeticus. ) 



This is the old-fashioned favorite type, with white flowers, the cups 

 margined with red and with rich, spicy odor. For indoor culture the 

 King Edward VII. and Ornatus is best. All do well in the open bor- 

 der, are perfectly hardy, and once planted take care of themselves.
