The Polyanthus Narcissi or Nosegay 
Daffodils produce large heads of sweet-scented 
flowers, and are specially adapted for Winter and 
Spring decoration in pots and jardinets, etc. The 
culture is the same as for Hyacinths. For flower 
beds and mixed holders they are great favourites, 
and produce a charming effect. Plant from 
September to November, and at the approach of 
winter give a light covering of long litter or other 
material to keep off severe frosts ; remove the 
covering in March. The earlier plantings give 
the best results.
