NARCISSI, or DAFFODILS 



Many beautiful hybrids are being produced, and as stocks increase and prices moderate, the cataloguing of many beautiful new varie- 

 ties will be permitted. A number of additions have been made to the present catalogue, and a trial of these will, we believe, afford much 

 pleasure. 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 whilst preferring 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 plant. By planting in succession 

 one or more varieties such a display may be enjoyed throughout the first three months of the year.
