Totus Alb us Grandiflorus. 



POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS have come to the 

 front as popular and satisfactory flowers for pot- 

 culture in Winter. They are of the easiest culture 

 and can be potted any time from October to Janu- 

 ary. Light loamy soil can be used, as the bulbs 

 require little or no fertilizing material. Several bulbs can be 

 grown in a large pot or box, and, as will be seen by our en- 

 graving, the effect is extremely lovely and graceful. To 

 secure good drainage, cover the bottom of the pot or box 

 with broken crockery, sand or pebbles; fill with soil to 

 within three inches of the top, then set up the bulbs and 

 cover them loosely with i}£ to 2 inches of soil ; water well 

 and place in a cool, dry cellar or similar place. They will 

 need no other attention except an occasional look to see they 

 are not getting too dry. When the first shoot appears bring 

 into full light, moderate temperature and moisture, and they 

 will grow famously and delight all with their lovely flowers.

 bulbs, sure to bloom.
