POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS 
Producing clusters of fragrant flowers; not 
recommended for outside planting, except in 
mild climates. 
Bulbs of these varieties, grown in pebbles, 
can be had in bloom from Christmas until 
Easter. Upon arrival, plant immediately, if 
wanted early, and put in a cool place, free from 
frost. When well rooted they can be taken 
into heat, the milder the temperature, the finer 
the flowers. For a succession of bloom, plant 
at intervals of two weeks, keeping unplanted 
bulbs in a moderately cool temperature and 
dry. The water requires changing occasionally, 
Tazetta Sub-Species 
CANALICULATUS. (3) A dainty little Polyan¬ 
thus Narcissus for the rockery, height 6 
inches. Has narrow erect bluish green foli¬ 
age and bears heads of three to four flowers 
with white perianth and globular golden cup, 
sweetly scented. Each 10c, doz. $1.00. 
a little powdered charcoal added to the water, 
helps to keep it fresh. The earlier the bulbs 
are planted, the longer the time required for 
rooting; December plantings root very quickly. 
Soleil d’Or will give best results if not brought 
into heat until the buds start to show.
