NARCISSI or 

 DAFFODILS 



These are among the most charming of our spring flow- 

 ers, defying, in their earliness, the rough winds of April to 

 grace our lawns and borders. Plant them in masses or have 

 a few pans in your window-garden, but, by all means, grow 

 some. 



Daffodils may be treated as advised for hyacinths; 

 they are not particular as to soil, and will thrive for 

 a number of years in ordinary soil. They are, with few 

 exceptions, suitable for naturalizing, and while pre- 

 ferring partial shade, will thrive in full sun exposure. 

 They are very desirable for pot culture, three to five 

 bulbs in a 5- or 6-inch pot producing an attractive 

 group. By planting one or more varieties in succes- 

 sion, such a display may be enjoyed throughout 

 the first three months of the year. 



If wanted by parcel post, add postage at your 

 zone rate. First-size Bulbs weigh 2 pounds per 

 doz.; Mammoth Double-Crown Bulbs, 3 potmds 

 per dozen. See page 2 for zone rates
