Naturalized in drifts and clumps 
Dancing 
Daffodils bring refreshing waves of 
golden yellow, white and white 
touched with orange-red to the early 
spring garden and also an abun- 
dance of flowers to decorate the 
house. They are used to perfection 
in drifts, large and small, through 
the natural garden, the lightly 
wooded grounds, the orchard and 
informal path garden. Avoid 
straight lines when placing them 
in irregularly spaced colonies of 
separate or mixed varieties. Use 
early to late flowering ones for a 
long season of bloom and vary the 
yellow with whites and red cups. 
Daffodils may be planted in groups by the garden pool, pond or brook; 
alone or in combination with early flowering, dwarf perennials, between 
rocks and boulders bordering the water. The short cups, poets and 
fragrant double daffodils appear well here.
