JONQUILS. 



(Narcissus Jonquilla and Odorus.) 



Jonquils are a small flowering type of Narcissus and are prized 

 for their graceful, golden, fragrant blossoms and the ease with 

 which they may be grown. Jlalf a dozen bulbs can be put in a 

 5-inch pot, and, with the same treatment as recommended for 

 Hyacinths (see page 3), a fine display can be had from January 

 to .April. Their cost is so trifling that liberal jilanting sh.ould be 

 made outdoors. A clump of 50 or more bulbs put here and 

 there among shriil)bery or interspersed in the hardy border or 

 naturalized in the grass gives an indescribably rich eflect in the 

 early spring, while a vase of the cut blooms will fill a room with 

 the rich, spicy odor. 



Single Sweet-scented (N/ireimius JonquilUi). Rich but- 

 lerv yellow; not as large a flower as the others, but most fra- 

 grant and very free-flowering. 15 cts. per doz. ; 85 cts. per

 ducing freely large yellow flowers, very sweetly scented; a 

 strong grower, doing well in almost any position. 20 cts. 

 per doz.; $1.00 per 100; $8.00 per 1000.' 

 Campernelle Rugulosus. The largest and finest of all 

 Jonquils; a handsome flower; color pure yellow; very fra- 

 grant. 20 cts. per doz.; $1.25 per 100; $10.00 per 1000.

Chinese Sacred Lily. 



(Soy Sin Far, Joss Flower, or Flower of the Gods.) 



This is the NureASxns Orientulis, and the variety grown by 

 Chinamen for decorating their tem|)les or Joss-houses on their 

 New Year's Day, which occurs in Feliruary. For the most part 

 they are grown in water in fancy bowls, with just enough pebl)les 

 around them to keep them from toppling over. They can also 

 be grown in ]>ots in soil, .sand or moss. We annually import 

 from China a large quantity of the finest quality bulbs, and if 

 l^lanted on arrival (about C>ctober 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. Liirye bulbs, 10 cts. each; 

 3 for 25 cts, ; 90 cts. [ler doz. Original baskets, containing 30 

 bulbs, $2.00.
