BUNCH-FLOWERED DAFFODIL (POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS) FOR BEDS, BORDERS, RUSTIC 
BASKETS, Etc. 
The Bunch-flowered Daffodil is a decorative plant in beds, lines, or masses, and forms a fine contrast to the 
Tulip and the Hyacinth. The varieties under this heading are distinct, and the best for an effective display out 
of doors. In planting, the top of the bulb should be six to nine inches under the surface of the soil.

POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS (BUNCH-FLOWERED DAFFODIL) FOR POT CULTURE. 
The rich golden-yellow and snow-white flowers of the Polyanthus Narcissi during winter and spring, form 
a pleasing variety in the decoration of the conservatory and sitting-room. One to three bulbs may be grown in a 
pot. Culture the same as recommended for the Hyacinth, page 7 . 
The Paper White and Double Roman Narcissi are invaluable for the autumn and winter decoration of the 
conservatory, and to cut for bouquets and vases. Commence potting in August, and continue successional plantings 
throughout the autumn. When the bulbs are well rooted, commence forcing as recommended for the Roman 
Hyacinth , page 6, and flowers may be had from October.

THE TULIP. 
The Tulip is extremely hardy, and of easy culture, flowering as freely in the shade as in the sunshine, and 
producing as fine flowers in a confined town garden, as in more favoured places. Double and single Tulips 
mixed, we recommend to be planted in front of shrubs, maintaining as they do a longer display, than if either 
are separately planted. In gardens where the flower beds must be kept gay from the earliest dawn of Spring, 
plant between the lines of Tulips, Scilla sibirica, Chionodoxa Lucilise, Snowdrop, or Crocus, and as these flower 
first, they can be removed or cut down when the Tulip is coming into flower. 
EARLY SINGLE TULIPS. 
The Early Single Tulip has a greater variety of rich, delicate, and attractive colours than any other section 
of spring-flowering bulbs. Of seifs, beautiful scarlets, crimsons, whites, and yellows ; of white grounds, striped 
or feathered with purple, violet, crimson, rose, puce, cerise, etc. ; of yellow grounds, having crimson, scarlet or 
red flakes and feathers. Those alone who have systematically cultivated the varieties of Early Single Tulips can 
form an idea of their beauty and diversity when massed in flower beds, or grouped in borders, or used for indoor 
decoration, three in a pot, and cultivated in the same way as the Hyacinth, page 7 .
