JONQUILS. 
Most excellent for early blooming; charming large golden and deliciously odoriferous 
flowers, freely produced; of the finest effect either in garden, greenhouse, or conservatory. 
May be successfully grown by everyone. These are delightfully fragrant and charming flow- 
ers, and excellent for early blooming. They are species of the Narcissus tribe, and possess 
many points of similarity with the small-flowered section of that large genus. Very attrac- 
tive flowers for pot culture. In common with other Narcissi, they prefer a rich, loamy, and 
porous soil, and when grown in pots may receive precisely the same treatment as that to 
which Hyacinths are subjected.

LILIES FOR FORCING. 
Of late years several beautiful varieties of Lilies 
have become exceedingly popular as window, green- 
house, and conservatory plants; they are also grown 
in vast numbers for floral decorations. The bulbs 
may be potted any time from August to November, 
and they will succeed in any good potting soil. They 
should be kept cool, and away from the air after 
potting; before being forced the bulbs mst be well 
rooted. The pots may be brought forward as soon 
as active growth has commenced. For a healthful, 
vigorous growth a free circulation of air, even tem- 
perature, and judicious watering must be given. A 
temperature ranging from 65° to 75° suits lilies best.
