The Chinese Sacred or Oriental Narcissus. 



The " Shui Sin Far," or Water Fairy Flower, Joss Flower, or Flower of the Gods, 

 etc., as it is called by the Celestials, is a variety of Narcissus, bearing in lavish pro- 

 fusion chaste flowers of silvery white, with golden-yellow cups. They are of exquisite 

 beauty and entrancing perfume. It is grown by the Chinese, according to their 

 ancientcustonis.to herald the adventof their new year and as a symbol of goodluck. 



The bulbs are grown-by a-method known only'to themselves, whereby theyattain 

 great size and vitality, ensuring luxuriant growth and immense spikes of flowers ; in 

 fact, the incredibly short time required to bring bulbs into bloom (four to six weeks 

 after planting) is one of the wonders of nature. " You can almost see them grow." 

 succeeding almost everywhere and with everybody. They do well in pots of earth, but 

 are more novel and beautiful grown in shallow bowls of water, with enough of fancy 

 pebbles to prevent them from toppling over when in bloom. A dozen bulbs started 

 at Intervals will give a succession of flowers throughout the winter. (Seecut.) Price,
