Polyanthus Narcissus 



The Polyanthus Narcissus produce many small crowned flowers borne in clusters. They are not as 

 hardy as the other classes but are better adapted for forcing. 



They may be grown in pots of earth but usually do best in bowls or dishes of water, by which method 

 the bulbs may be brought into profuse bloom in four to six weeks from planting. Put an inch or two 

 of sand and gravel in the dish in which they are to be grown, set the bulbs on this and put enough gravel 

 or shells around them to keep them from falling over, fill the dish with water and set in a dark closet for 

 a few days until the roots start freely, then bring them to the light and keep in any ordinary living room.
