BECKERT'S SEED STORE, 101 AND 103 FEDERAL ST., N. S., PITTSBUR 



NARCISSI (Daffodils) 



Many beautiful hybrids are being produced, and as 

 stocks increase and prices moderate, the cataloguing of 

 many beautiful new varieties 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 while preferring partial shade, 

 will thrive in full sun exposure. They are very desir- 

 able for pot culture, three to five bulbs in a 5- or 6-inch V 

 pot producing an attractive group. By planting one .^Jt'* 

 or more varieties in succession, such a display may be 

 enjoyed throughout the first three months of the year. \u 



If wanted by parcel post, add postage at your V 

 zone rate as follows: On First-size bulbs, for 2 lbs. 

 per doz.; on Mammoth double-crown bulbs, for 3 • 

 lbs. per doz.
