NARCISSUS or DAFFODIL 



Culture — Daffodils and Narcissus appear to greater advantage if planted in partial shade. This 

 will prolong their bloom and will help to retain the color of the red and orange cup varieties. Set bulbs 

 from four to five inches deep and eight inches apart. Do not cut the leaves after blooming, but let them 

 die back; if cut back severely, you will have no flowers the following season. 



Trumpet Daffodils 



The flowers of this class are of large size; the perianth, or petals, measure from 23^ to 4 inches across 

 with the trumpet, or tube, 1 3^to 2 inches in length. Flowers are borne on long, stiff stems from 12 to 18 inches. 

 The trumpets of this type are as long or longer than the perianth segments.
