Campernellk 

 Jonquils. 



Narcissus Paper White. 

 Grandiflora. 



Jonquils. 



All of the Jonquils are prized for 

 their graceful, golden, fragrant 

 blossoms and the ease with which 

 they may be grown. Half 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 plantings 

 should be made outdoors. A 

 clump of 50 or more bulbs put 

 here and there among shrubbery or 

 interspersed in the hardy border 

 gives an indescribably rich effect 

 in the early spring, while a vase of 

 the cut blooms will fill a room with 

 the rich, spicy odor. 



Single Sweet-scented (A r ara's- 

 sus fonquilld). Rich yellow; not 

 as large a flower as the others, 

 but most fragrant. 15 cts. per
