BULBS FOR NATURALIZING. Nearly all varieties of daffodils are good for 
naturalizing, i. e. planting in grass or in a light woods, without cul- 
tivation or digging for a number of years. On the whole small varieties 
will bloom in this way somewhat longer without overcrowding from multi- 
plication causing the bulbs to dwindle below blooming size. However 
larger varieties make more of a show for the first few years, and 
should bloom at least four years even without being dug and separated. 
A MIXTURS will lengthen the time of blooming and give variety to the 
planting. (Our mixtures bloom over a period of three or four weeks 
with moderate weather conditions.) A planting of all one variety will 
give a more brilliant effect when in bloom however as the whole: patch 
will be golden at one time. If you buy one peck each of several var- 
ieties, you can make a beautiful effect by planting in drifts of dif- 
ferent varieties. Our mixtures are largely mixed by hand at shipping 
time, and all bulbs are healthy and of good blooming sizes.
