1NJ;4PCJSSUS, 



All the varieties are extremely hardv and popu- 

 lar as a border flower. The Single Narcissus, of 

 which we give an illustration, is quite an attrac- 

 tive flower, the central cup being of a very difl'er- 

 ent color from the six petals. Some have the 

 petals of alight yellow and the cup orange; 

 others have the petals white and the cup yellow ; 

 while the Poet's Narcissus is snowy white, with 

 red cup. The Double varieties are very desira- 

 ble. The well-known Daflbdil is of this class. 

 Its true name is Van Sion. Oranf/e Phoenix is 

 sometimes called Butter-and-Eggs, as the large 

 petals are yellow and the short ones oiange. 



The Polyanthus Narcissus are very attractive 

 and showy flowers, producing on a tall §tem large 

 clusters of white and yellow cup-shaped blos- 

 soms, and are particularly admired for their 

 sweet jasmine perfume ; they contrast finely with 

 the Hyacinth, for srarden, pot, or glass culture, 

 and require the same treatment.
