BARR’S MINIATURE DAFFODILS FOR THE 
“ROCK GARDEN.” 
The h>Uowing aie chiiriiiing little subjects for rockwork, where their dainty flow'ers are seen to 
perfection. They should be left undisturbed for years, and, if happy, will soon establish themselves 
nnd .afford a lovely picture in early spring. All the Corbularias (exce|)t Corbularia mctiof'hylla) like 
moisture, and should therefore be planted at tbe foot of the rockery. Cycla’nineus also likes moisture 
and ptirtial shade. Corbularia monophyll i flourishes in a warm dry sheltered situation, and should be 
given a hot .sunny nook, planted in almost jHire sand; when coming into bloom give water freely. 
Tnandrus atbus (^An^el's Tears) and Jnucifolius delight in partial shade and a light gritty soil, and 
should be given a well-drained position 
such as a sloping bank. In the case 
of these slender dwarf-growing Mini- 
ature Daffodils, the ground may be 
carpeted with close-growing surface 
rooting plants, such as Arcnaria eras- 
pilosa, Thymus serpyllum vars., T. 
lanuginosus, Heniiaria glabra. Mossy 
Saxifrayas, etc. ; these plants provide 
a natural protection for the.'-e little 
bulbs, besides keeping their dainty 
blooms from being splashed and soiled 
in rainy weather. We prefer-, how- 
ever, seeing these little gems peep- 
ing out of grass, and where special 
banks are made or reserved for them 
we can supply seed of suitable fine 
dwarf grasses for sowing in September- 
after planting the bulbs : this sowing 
will give a fine green car-pet by the 
following spring w-hen the Narcissi 
bloom. NARcrssus cvcLAsrrNEus
