10 MICHELL’S SUPERB NARCISSUS OR DAFFODILS 
AMERICAN GROWN 
No garden is complete without the Narcissus or Daffodil, it being among the most beautiful and fragrant of our hardy Spring 
flowering bulbs, doing well in almost all soils and situations, for naturalizing, planting among shrubbery and in formal beds. For house 
or greenhouse culture they are equally desirable, planted in pots or pans. 
Culture. —Owing to the various sizes of the bulbs of different varieties, we cannot advisably give the exact depth to plant, but a 
good rule to follow is to cover the bulb one and one-half times its own depth. For house culture 3 or 4 bulbs can be put in a 5-inch 
or 6 -inch pan or pot and given the same treatment as Hyacinths. 
The figures prefixed before the variety denote the height. The letters following the varieties indicate their relative time of flower¬ 
ing, the B’s being the earliest to bloom, the C’s the latest. 
If Narcissus bulbs are wanted by Parcel Post, add 30c. per 100 for postage, to the first and second zones; 
for other zones, please see parcel post table on second cover page. 
NOTE.—Monster bulbs will be supplied in all varie¬ 
ties, except where noted.
