Double Narcissus Von Zion 
Narcissus (Daffodils) 
These hold the affections of the flower- 
loving public like few other flowers; their 
popularity increases yearly, and the quantity 
now forced is enormous. Their graceful 
hab t, delicate fragrance and variety of form 
and color are delightful, and they are always 
in demand for bouquets, vases, personal werr 
and floral work generally. Easily cultivated, 
quick and sure bloomers. The low cost of 
the bulbs and the incre sing demand should 
warrant liberal planting.
