THE SPRING. 
Hardy Narcissi 
More people are planting: Narcissi every year because they find them so adaptable, 
varieties do splendidly in the house and they are all perfectly hardy outdoors. The 
bulbs bloom fretly and increase rapidly year by year. 
CULTURE. The bulbs may be planted from September on 
until the ground freezes up. Plant in large groups for best 
display and cover the bulbs several inches. After ground 
freezes, the beds should be covered with strawy manure, leaves 
or litter. Remove this covering early in the spring when the 
plants show above the ground. Bone Meal is the best fertilizer 
For house culture, three or four bulbs can be put into a 5- 
or 6-inch flower pot, and given the same treatment as Hya¬ 
cinths. (See page 8).
