NARCISSI 
Plant them in groups In the shrubbery—or naturalize in 
turf under trees or in the lawn. All they require is a fairly 
good garden soil; allow them to remain undisturbed, and 
they will increase in size and beauty year after year, 
blooming profusely each season. Try some Daffodils this 
year; you will find the same romance and beauty 
in them as the poets who love to tell of their 
“dainty heads dancing in the spring breezes.”
