The Poet's Narcissus 



(Narcissus Poeticus) 



This is the old-fashioned favorite type; all have snowy white flowers, with 

 yellow or lemon cups margined more or less deeply with red and with rich, 

 spicy odor. All do well in the open border, or naturalized in grass, are perfectly 

 hardy, and once planted take care of themselves. 

 Poeticus (Pheasant's Eye or Pod's Narcissus). Flowers snow-white, with 



be&utiful lemon-yellow cup edged with bright orange-red; blooms in May. 



45 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100; $25.00 per 1000. 

 Poeticus OrnatUS. More symmetrical than the old Poeticus, and blooms 



almost a month earlier; flowers large, pure white, cup margined with scarlet. 



Extra large bulbs, 70 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $45.00 per 1000. 

 Poeticus King Edward VII (Almira). An improvement on Ornatus, 



being a stronger grower, producing larger flowers of purest white, wftli 



yellow cup margined with scarlet; very early. 8 cts. each; 85 cts. per doz.; 



$6.50 per 100. 

 Poeticus Thelma. We consider this the finest Poet's Narcissus yet 



introduced. The wide overlapping substantial petals are of snowy-white, 



the broad light yellow cup distinctly margined with deep scarlet. A strong, 



free grower and bloomer. Extra fine. 20 cts. each; $1.75 per doz.; $12.00» 



per 100.

Narcissus Poetaz 



Narcissus Poeticus Thelma 



(Cluster-flowered DafTodils) 



* These are a cross between the Poeticus and Polyanthus types, 



partaking largely of the former in the size and form of the indi- 

 vidual flowers, and also inherits the strong, free growth of their 

 Poeticus parentage. In the manner of producing their flowers 

 in clusters, and in extreme free-flowering qualities, they 

 possess all the merits of the Polyanthus type. They are as easily flowered 

 in the house in winter as the Paper White Polyanthus, and are considered by 

 many as better than the Polyanthus, and ofl'er a larger variety in coloring, 

 Can be planted out of doors if well covered during the winter. We offer three 

 fine varieties: 



Elvira. Very free-flowering, producing a number of stems to a bulb; each 

 bearing 3 to 4 large flowers, with broad, heavy white petals and a bright 

 yellow cup, edged orange. 10 cts. each; $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100. 

 Helios. The best yellow variety. Petals soft primrose-yellow, deep golden- 

 yellow cup; flowers of good size, produced in clusters. 15 cts. each; $1.50 

 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 



Laurens Koster. One of the latest introductions, and producing very 

 large flowers; perianth pure white with deep orange-yellow cup prettily 

 fluted. 3 to 4 flowers on a stem. 10 cts. each; $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100. 



Single Mixed Narcissus 



A splendid mixture, containing a great manj^ fine varieties, and sure to 

 produce satisfactory returns. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000.
