plant in any collection. Flowers are soft yellow orange. Top size, $2.00 ea. A 
good blooming size, $1.00 ea. 
Note. No Clivias of any size are guaranteed to flower the first year after 
moving. They usually do but the only sure way is to pay more for one in bud 
to be delivered in March. The price is 50c above the price of the largest size 
except for C. nobilis hybrids. The price of these in bud is $13.00. 
Cyrtanthus are closely related to Zephyranthes. Bulbs and plants are 
about the same size but the flowers are long and tubular. Their most vigorous 
growth and flowering is in the winter, tho a few flowers are produced thru a 
large part of the year. They may become semi-dormant in mid-summer when 
hot but should not be dried off much. They like rich soil and respond to barn- 
yard fertilizer. 
The winter flowering habit make Cyrtanthus very desirable in southern 
gardens and for growing in pots in the north. Useful for cut flowers.

Daffodils 
This name for all Narcissi has the authority of the British Royal Horti- 
culture Society. They are universal garden favorites. They belong to the 
Amaryllis Family. 
Culture. All Daffodils except the Polyanthus Narcissus are hardy both 
in the mild climate of the south as well as in the colder northern states. In 
the north especially it is best to plant the bulbs rather deep where the frost 
does not reach. Six inches is about right. Smaller bulbs like Jonquils may 
go more shallow and be mulched. In California too and all the south there is 
an advantage in deep planting. We plant the Trumpets at least 4” deep. Plant 
September to November. Poeticus very early. All do well in pots. 
Sandy loam is the best soil, but any good rich garden soil will do. The 
addition of thoroughly decayed manure is a help. Use no fresh manure. The 
addition of lime to the soil is good, and necessary if leaf mould is used, as 
they need a mildly alkaline or neutral soil.
