There are no hardy 

 plants which have 

 more points of merit 

 than the Narcissus- 

 Perfectly hardy in all 

 latitudes,if planted in 

 well -drained ground 

 they multiply and in- 

 crease in attraction 

 each year. They are 

 as easily forced as the 

 hyacinth, and a con- 

 stant succession of 

 flowers may be had 

 from January to the 

 middle of May. The 

 flowers are among' the 

 most attractive of 

 blooms, very lasting 

 and of endless varie- 

 ty of form and color- 

 ing. It is important 

 that they be not too 

 strongly forced, oth- 

 erwise the culture is 

 \ery simple.
