DoiIble Narcissus 
Narcissus ai-c indispensable for winter and early sprinir flowering-. They are varied and beautiful in form and color, and 
their delicious fragrance is unexcelled. Their season of bloom continues about two months from the earliest to the latest 
varieties. Many varieties arc so cheap they should bo planted extensively for cut flowers, Poeticus being particularly good 
for this purpose. Narcissus, when once planted, will increase from year to year, always hardy and profuse bloomers. For 
blooming in the house during winter all varieties are well adapted. Try a few Narcissus in the house this -winter, and our 
word for it they will afford you much pleasure.
