Polyanthus Narcissi 



We are offering only two varieties of this 

 type of Narcissi, for growing indoors in pots, 

 as well as in pebbles and water. Neither va- 

 riety is hardy, but suitable for indoor house 

 culture only. 



If planted in pebbles and water and grown 

 fairly cool in full light, they will produce 

 splendid flowers approximately three weeks 

 after planting. A wonderful decoration for 

 your table or window when King Winter 

 reigns out of doors. 



PAPER-WHITE GRANDIFLORA. Pure white 

 — the most popular variety and used in enormous 

 quantities for early cut flowers. Large heads of frag' 

 rant flowers. Readily grown in water or moss; very 

 durable.
