Autumx Catalogue of Bulbs, Seeds and Garden Requisites. 
/ 
Narcissus or Daffodils. 
T hese charming, graceful flowers have 
had a great revival of popularity in the 
last few years, and are now prime favorites 
for early blooming in the garden, and are 
largely forced by florists for winter flowers. 
They are bright and hardy (except the Poly¬ 
anthus sorts), and nearly all are most deli¬ 
ciously fragrant; no flower better deserves 
its popularity. Of easy culture, th.ey are 
equally satisfactory for potting and for the 
open bed and borders, where their rush-like 
glaucous foliage and white and yellow flow¬ 
ers are very much admired. For their culti¬ 
vation the soil should bo well-loosened, so 
that the roots have perfect freedom in their 
growth. The planting of bulbs should be 
deep, and about five to ten Inches apart. 
After the foliage dies down in the sum¬ 
mer, the bulbs should be lifted and replanted 
In September or October In a different place 
In the garden ; in this way they will thrive 
and Increase from year to year. Everyone 
shouid have at least a few of these charm¬ 
ing plants. 
For house culture plant several bulbs 
together in a pot and keep in a cool room, 
give plenty of light and water, and they will 
bloom from February to April. The Poly¬ 
anthus varieties are earliest, and best adapt¬ 
ed to house culture, but all will do well in 
pots if not kept too warm and forced too 
rapidly.

same treatment. Plant three roots in a S or 4 inch pot.
