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, 
a little powdered charcoal added to the water, 
helps to keep it fresh. The earlier the bulbs 
ai*e 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. 
GRAND SOI.EIL D OR. Yellow with bright 
orange cup. Very fragrant and colorful. 
Top size bulbs. Each 10c; doz. $1.00.
