NARCISSI or DAFFODILS 
No flowers are more deserving of extensive cultivation on account of their great usefulness, hardiness, fragrance, and general 
effectiveness. They will succeed in any soil, and are very attractive when planted in mixed borders, shrubberies, lawns, or alongside 
woodland walks. For pot culture, or for forcing for early cut flowers, they are also invaluable. The following list contains a selection of 
the best well-known sorts, as also a few of the most desirable of the newer varieties.
