Group III. — Parvi-coronat®, the true Narcissus and the Tazetta forms. 
Character. — Crown less than half as long as the divisions of the perianth. 
The Poet’s Narcissus Parkinson called the Purple and Saffron-ringed Daffodils. The varieties which flower 
. j Anril '\re Anmstifolius Ornatus, Tripodalis, Poetarum and Grandiflorus. Those which flower 
in May are Recurvus and the^iouble white variety. For vases and table bouquets the Poet's Daffodil both early 
and Ute flo'“nng are highly prized ; also the white flowers of Bifloms and the slender graceful blossoms of 
Gracilis ■ Intcrmedius is a beautiful dwarf variety; and Tenuior is the Silver Jonquil. 
The’ New Daffodils, Burbidgei, appear to be a third cross, and are probably hybrids of Barn and Poetic s 
as the varieties run very close upon the one and the other. The varieties of Burbidgei may not inaptly be called 
eLly-flowering forms of Poeticus. A coloured plate of the varieties of Poeticus and Burbidgei appeared in The 
CZnrdtn March 27th 1880. Intending purchasers can have this plate on application. .... , 
The Tazetta, 7 or Bunch-flowered, offered in this Group, are remarkably beautiful, and in planting them the 
top of the bulb should be six inches under the surface of the soil.

POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS FOR BEDS, BORDERS, RIBBONS, Etc. 
The Polyanthus Narcissus, or bunch-flowered Daffodil, is very decorative planted in beds, lines, or masses, 
and it contrasts effectively with the Tulip and the Hyacinth. The vaneties offered under this heading for out- 
door culture are distinct, and may either be grouped together, or grown separately. In planting, the top of the 
bulb should be six inches under the surface of the soil.

POLYANTHUS, OR BUNCH-FLOWERED . „ , 
The Polyanthus Narcissus has rich golden-yellow or snow-white flowers, and is specially adapted for winter 
and spring decoration in pots and jardinets. The effect is greatly enhanced when three bulbs are grown together 
in a 6 or 7 -inch pot. The culture is the same as that of the Hyacinth. 
Where flowers are in demand in November, December, and early in January, the Paper White and Double 
Roman Narcissi are invaluable. Pot them early in autumn, and when well rooted commence forcing as 
reauired Thus treated, these and the Roman Hyacinth ( see page 6 ) can be had in bloom from October. 
tt-F The First Prize for Polyanthus Narcissus was awarded to us by the Royal Botanic Society at their 
March Show of 1877. [Barr and Sugden,
