MISCELLANEOUS NARCISSUS 
Tazetta and Tazetta Hybrids 
Division 8. Under this class of Narcissus 
we have two very popular types—Tazetta or 
the original Bunch-flowering Narcissus which 
can be grown in the house in pebbles and 
water such as the Paper-White, Chinese 
Sacred, and Grand Soleil d’Or listed below, 
and the increasingly popular hybrid type 
known as Poetaz, which is now extensively 
planted in gardens on account of the mass 
effect of their blooms. 
Polyanthus 
BUNCH-FLOWERING 
Not for outdoor planting, except south 
of the Carolinas 
Ready for delivery October 1 
We are offering three varieties of this splen- 
did type of Narcissus which are now univer- 
sally grown indoors in pots of fiber or soil as 
well as in pebbles and water. 
Dishes of these, grown in pebbles and 
water, may be had in bloom continuously 
from Thanksgiving until Easter. The best 
method is to keep your bulbs in the containers 
in which they are shipped to you and to store 
them in a moderately cool, dry place. Plant 
different lots every 3 weeks from October 1 
until March 1, and you can enjoy a con- 
stant succession of bloom. 
CHINESE SACRED (N. polyanthus orien- 
talis). Frequently referred to as the Chi- 
nese Sacred Lily. The flowers are similar 
to the variety Grand Soleil d’Or, except 
that the perianth is white while the cup ts 
golden yellow. Mammoth Bulbs, 
15 cts. each, $1.40 for 10, $12.00 per 100 
GRAND SOLEIL D’OR. This popular 
bunch-flowering variety of the Polyanthus

ange cups.

Division 9. This class of Narcissus, In- 
stead of having a trumpet or crown, has a 
small, wide-mouthed cup. They are very 
hardy, and used in large numbers for natural- 
izing, their simplicity of form and the refined 
character of blooms making them excellent 
flowers for cutting.

the new Poeticus. Pure white perianth;

yellow cup frilled deep red.

Miniature Daffodils 
For the Rock-Garden 
Division 11. Several of the botanical 
species of Daffodils are very tiny, making the 
rock garden the logical place to use them. 
For this purpose they are ideal. In addition 
to the varieties listed below, we suggest the 
use of Division 5, the Triandrus and Trian- 
drus Hybrids (page 6), and Division 6, the 
Cyclamineus and  Cyclamineus Hybrids 
(page 6) as especially suited for rock-garden 
planting.

sulphur Hoop-Petticoat. Pale citron flow- 
ers. Height 6 to 8 inches; delights in a 
damp sandy peat soil with no manure.

white Hoop-Petticoat. Exquisite little 
flowers of snowy white on 6-inch stems 
brave the cold winds of early spring. 
40 cts. each, $3.25 for 10, $30.00 per 100 


Poetaz 
The Hardy Clustered-Flowered 
Poet's Narcissus 
The chief characteristic of this type of 
Narcissus is that hybridizers by crossing the 
strong-scented Polyanthus varieties with the 
Poeticus type, developed a hardy strain of 
Daffodils which has the bunch-flowered char- 
acter of the Polyanthus with larger flowers 
similar to the Poet’s described on this page. 
They are excellent for pot culture and are 
splendid for the garden border. 
ADMIRATION. Sulphur-yellow perianth; 
sulphur-yellow eye with scarlet-red border. 
A beautiful variety in every way. 
25 cts. each, $2.20 for 10, $20.00 per 100

broad white petals and bright yellow cups 
thinly edged orange. One of the loveliest 
of a lovely family. 
15 cts. each, $1.20 for 10, $10.00 per 100

ping petals, with really brilliant scarlet cup.

KLONDYKE. Perianth pure bright yellow,

much as the other yellow types of this class. 
15 cts. each, $1.40 for 10, $12.00 per 100

Poetaz. Perianth even yellow; cup bright
