GARDEN NARCISSUS. 
Showy Spring flowering bulbs, which occupy an important position in mixed borders. They grow 
freely in almost any soil, and are very effective planted in marginal lines, and grouped in shrubberies 
and woodland walks. N. Bulbocodium and N. Nanus make pretty edgings and excellent pot plants.

JONQUIL NARCISSUS. 
These are graceful and pretty, and are much prized for their fragrance. They are valuable for the 
decoration of the conservatory, sitting-room, and flower garden, and require the same cultural treatment 
as Polyanthus Narcissus, except that three or four roots should be planted in a four or five-inch, and five 
or six in a six-inch pot, and should not be forced till the turn of the year.

THE TULIP. 
EARLY TULIPS. 
For Winter and Spring gardening, Early Flowering Tulips, double and single, are indispensable? 
and whether grown in pots, ornamental vases, jardinets, &c., for in-door decoration, in flower boxes, 
rustic vases, or in the open ground, their brilliant and diversified colours produce a pleasing and striking 
effect. Their extreme hardiness, certainty of blooming, and the absence of all difficulty in then* culti- 
vation, distinctly entitle them to a preference in the choice of occupants for the Spring flower garden, 
while their cheapness enables every lover of a flower garden to plant extensively. 
Those who may only have small shaded town gardens need not be afraid to plant Tulips freely ; we 
can assure them that they succeed well even in such positions, and remain longer in bloom than if grown 
in situations where they would be exposed to the influence of the sim. 
EARLY SINGLE TULIPS. 
No Tulips display so great a variety of delicate, striking, and attractive colours as these. 
Culture in Pots is the same as recommended for the Hyacinth ; but to produce an effective display 
three bulbs should be planted in a four or five-inch, and five in a six-inch pot. They should be grown 
close to the glass, and during fine days have abundance of air. Those intended for early blooming should 
be gently forced as soon as the shoot appears. 
Culture out of Doors precisely that of the Hyacinth, planting the bulbs four to six inches apart, 
and keeping the crown of the bulb three inches under tlie surface ; during severe weather protect with a 
thin coating of litter or cocoa fibre. 
Time of Planting for out-door Decoration.— The early part of November, or as soon after as 
convenient. We have planted the Tulip as late as January, and have had a splendid display.
