Box of Van Waveren’s Giant which won first prize 
in Spalding, England, April 19, 1930 in a competitive 
exhibit of trumpet Narcissus packed ready for shipment. 
Some people claim and some believe that heavier bulbs 
than those grown in Virginia would be more desirable. Our 
own plantings and experiments disprove that claim. Our 
Virginia grown Narcissus are a little lighter than Holland 
grown bulbs but they contain more solids and more flower- 
buds. They are more economical to handle because they 
contain less water. Planted side by side outdoors there is no 
difference in foliage and flowers, except more flowers from 
Virginia bulbs.
