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 Feb- 

 ruary. For the most part they are grown in water in 

 fancy bowls, with just enough pelibles 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 flow- 

 ers are borne in clusters, and are highly scented. Large 

 bulbs, 10 cts, each ; 3 for 25 cts.; 90 cts. per doz. Orig- 

 inal baskets, containing 30 bulbs, $2.00.
