NARCISSUS, OR DAFFODIL. 
In the arrangement of these most charming spring flowers, we have followed the classification made in the 
Hardeners' Chronicle by J. G. Baker, Esq., Royal Herbarium, Kew, who has devoted much time in clearing up 
the confusion which existed in the nomenclature of these. 
In beds, masses, or marginal lines, the Narcissus is exceedingly effective. Its rich colours and great variety of 
form invest it with an interest specially its own. In all cases the form is beautiful, and in some the contrast of 
colour is most striking and exceedingly pleasing. For pot culture they are most desirable, while to those who 
have semi-wild places, such as woodland walks, wild gardens, etc., they are indispensable ; and as many of them 
arc quoted at exceedingly moderate prices, they may be freely planted by the 100, or by the 1,000, at a trifling 
outlay. In shrubbery borders and carriage-drives, the Narcissus has long been a favourite plant, and what a 
charm would be added to the landscape of ornamental parks if groups of these were planted in the grass, asso- 
ciated with our native single Daffodil !
