Narcissus, Paper White Grandiflora Hultiflora 



Narcissi and Daffodils 



Narcissi and Daffodils are amonji the earliest-flowering bulbs, and are alike 

 useful for cut-flowers and decorative purposes. The most useful for early forcing is 

 the well-known Paper White Narcissus varieties Grandiflora and Multiflora. '''hey 

 are pure white, chaste and beautiful, and are borne on long stems, sometimes as 

 many as fifteen to a stem. 



CULTUEAL DIKECTI0N8.— Plant bulbs in shallow pans or boxes, about 2 inches 

 apart, and store in cellar or shed till thoroughly rooted Do not allow frost to reach 

 them. If wanted for Christmas, bring into the light about the second week in Novem- 

 ber, and after that successively (about a month to six weeks), and you will have 

 Narcissus in bloom till nearly Easter. Fo' general cultivation of Narcissus under 

 glass, .see Hyacinths, page 2. 



Paper White Narcissus can also be grown in water with pebbles in shallow 

 dishes and lx)uls, the same as the Sacred Chinese Narcissus.
