CHINESE SACRED 

 NARCISSUS 



(Joss Flower, or Flower of the Gods) 



These may be grown in pots of earth, 

 and very satisfactorily in bowls, par- 

 tially filled with pebbles and water. As 

 the roots develop, they form a network 

 about the pebbles, thus supporting 

 the plant when in bloom. They should 

 be started in the dark for ten to fourteen 

 days, and then grown in bright light, 

 but carefully protected from draughts. 

 The flowers are mostly white, with 

 yellow cups and arc very fragrant. 



Extra large selected bulbs, 10 cIs. each, 

 25 c(s. for 3, $1 per doz. If ordered by mail, 

 add 5 cIs. per bulb for postage.
