jS.L. — lue Chinese Sacred Lily sometimes produces double flowers. 
iney may be grown either in soil in pots 
water in a vase, but the latter method 
is to be preferred, as it lends itself more 
readily to artistic arrangement, and tho 
bulbs bloom much earlier. They should 
be treated in the same way as Hyacinths, 
and can be planted at any time between 
October and March. 
The flowers are exquisitely perfumed 
and of a clear white colour, with bright 
cup. 
Each bulb sends up six or more strong 
spikes, and in a moderately cool room will 
bloom in about eight or ten weeks from the 
time oi planting.

BORDER NARCISSUS OR DAFFODILS. 
Carefully arranged according to the nomenclature adopted by the Daffodil Conference, 1884. 
These, like all other flowers we offer for sale, we grow in large quantities, and 
grow them well ; during their season of blooming they present a magnificent sight, 
and we beg all lovers either to inspect our stock of Bulbs or when in flower. The 
following and many other varieties will be objects of great beauty, and 
probably as good as can be seen at any exhibition. Like the Polyanthus varieties, 
blooms of all the following are indispensable for cut flowers, and considering they 
will grow to perfection in almost any soil and any situation, with little or no 
attention after planting, and the cheapness of most varieties, they should be found 
in every garden.
