Narcissus Poeticus 
Poet’s, or Pheasant’s Eye Narcissus 
The Poeticus or Pheasant’s Eye Narcissus is one of 
the best sorts for naturalizing in fields and woods and 
also for clumping in perennial beds and among shrub¬ 
bery. When these are once planted they will remain in 
t he same place for some years and will also increase their 
quantity of bulbs. All varieties of this type are per¬ 
fectly hardy.

Narcissus Poetaz Hybrids 
These new Hybrid Narcissi arc perfectly hardy and 
will force equally as well as the Polyanthus or Poeticus 
Ornatus from which they originated. The individual 
flowers retain the size and form of the Poeticus Ornatus 
as well as its fragrance and do not have the strong odor 
of the Polyanthus, resembling it only in quantity of 
blooms. While it is one of the best sorts for forcing in 
pots, it is admirably adapted for growing among pcl>- 
blcs in water, much the same as Narcissus Paper White. 
The producers of these beautiful Hybrid Narcissi, 
thoroughly recommend them.
