INarcissus 



or Daffodils 



There are several quite dis- 

 tinct classes of Narcissus : The 

 old yellow Daffodil, or Trum- 

 pet Narcissus, the white flow- 

 ered Pheasant's Eye or Poet's 

 Narcissus, and the'Polj-anthus 

 Narcissus. The first two are 

 among the hardijest and most 

 desirable plants of the garden, 

 and will do better and give 

 more satisfaction with less 

 care than almost any other 

 plant. When once established 

 they do not need to be reset for several 

 years, and will thrive in almost any soil. 

 They are not only desirable for the gar- 

 den, but equally so for the house. One 

 to four bulbs set in a five-inch pot will be 

 sure to give flowers even in the smoky 

 atmosphere of the city, where their beau- 

 tiful color and delicate fragrance are 

 doubly welcome. 



The Polj'anthus varieties need some 

 protection through winter in the North, 

 but will do finely without it in the South. 

 They are exceedingly valuable for flower- 

 ing in pots in the house. The Paper 

 White may be made to come into bloom 

 in December, and this, with other varie- 

 ties of Narcissus, will give a continuous 

 succession of profuse bloom imtil spring. 

 They thrive best in a cool temperature. 

 Pot as soon as received; set m a cool, dark room, and 

 keep moderately moist for one or two months so that they 

 may root; then remove to the window or conservatory for 

 flowering.
