NATURALIZING DAFFODILS 
All bulbs sent to you without charge 
One of the finest things that can be 
done with a piece of open, waste land is 
to plant it broadcast with hundreds of 
Daffodil bulbs. While they will not en- 
dure complete shade, any open, semi- 
shaded area will suit them, and they will 
riot with the utmost freedom in a sloping 
meadow, particularly at the sides of 
streams or small lakes. 
When Daffodils are to be naturalized, 
they should not be planted in regular 
rows or at even distances apart. The best 
thing is to carry a basket of bulbs over 
the ground, spilling them irregularly and 
planting the bulbs where they fall. It 
will take several years to achieve the full 
value of a naturalistic planting, and the 
Daffodils should be left entirely undis- 

Pt 2) 
turbed during that period. The foliage 
should never be cut off, but allowed to 
ripen and wither away naturally.
