Poeticus Narcissus 
The Poeticus Narcissus is an old-fashioned type which continues to 
gain in favor each year. The flowers have a rich, spicy odor that is 
most pleasing. The perianth petals are snow-white and the small eye 
or crown is flattened, either yellow or lemon, and edged more or less 
deeply with scarlet-crimson and sometimes all scarlet. Esteemed for 
cutting. Poeticus Narcissus are splendid in the open border or nat¬ 
uralized. If the plantings are divided so that some will be in a sunny 
location, others in semi-shade, and some in heavy shade, the flowering 
period will extend over several weeks. The familiar "Poet's” Narcissus.
