Miniature Daffodils for the “ Rock Garden.” 
The following are charming little subjects for rockwork, where their dainty flowers are seen to 
perfection. They should be left undisturbed for years, and, if happy, will soon establish themselves 
and afTord a lovely picture in early spring. All the Bulbocodiums (except monophyllus') and Cyclamineus 
like moisture, and should therefore be planted at the foot of the rockery. Bulbocodium monophyllus 
flourishes in a warm dry sheltered situation, planted in almost pure sand; when coming into bloom 
give water freely. Triandrus albus (^Ansel's Tears') and fimcifolius delight in partial shade an<l a light 
gritty soil, and should be given a well-drained position. In the case of these Miniature Daflbdils, 
the ground may be carpeted with close-growing surface-rooting plants, such as Arenaria ccespitosa, 
'Thymus serpyllum vats., T. lanu!;inosus, L/erniaria glabra. Mossy Sajcifragas, etc. ■, these plants provide a 
natural protection for these little bulbs, besides keeping their dainty blooms from being splashed and soiled 
in rainy weather. We prefer, however, seeing these little gems peeinng out of grass, and can supply seed 
of suitable fine dwarf grasses for sowing in September after planting the bulbs; this sowing will give a 
fine green carpet by the following spring when the Narcissi bloom.
