NARCISSUS BURBIDGEI AND POETICUS. 



This section includes the Narcissus Poeticus varieties and Burbidge's 

 hybrids between Poeticus and Incomparabilis, all having instead of 

 trumpet or crown, a small wide mouthed cup the depth of which is 

 less than I the length of a perianth petal. 



All are hardy as rocks, producing long stemmed fragrant flowers that 

 are prized for cutting. They thrive in gardens, and for naturalizing in 

 grass or semi-wild places they are magnificent; by mixing the early and 

 late flowering sorts a continuous display of bloom may be enjoyed for 

 weeks. For winter flowering in pots select the earlier varieties and grow 

 on cool and slow.
