NARCISSUS BUNCH-FLOWERED, or POLYANTHUS NARCISSI. 
ALL VERY SWEET-SCENTED. 
The Polyanthus Narcissi produce large heads of sweet-scented flowers, and are 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. For 
flower beds and mixed borders, the Polyanthus Narcissi are great favourites, and produce a beautiful 
effect. Plant in October or November, but 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. 
Where flowers are in demand in November, December, and early in January, the Paper White 
‘Early Snowflake’ and Double Roman Narcissi are of great value for forcing with the Roman 
Hyacinths (see Culture, page 1).
