DAFFODILS FOR 
By naturalizing is meant planting bulbs 
in sizeable groups to give the appearance 
of spontaneous growth. In places where 
they can grow with less attention than 
they would get in the garden, they appear 
to care for themselves. Greater quantities 
of bulbs are used, and it is best to plant 
them in drifts to give a natural appearance. 
Many types of sturdy bulbs, such as Daf- 
fodils, Crocus, Muscari, Scilla, and Chiono-

NATURALIZING 
doxa are suitable for this type of planting. 
They bloom faithfully each spring, ripen 
their foliage and disappear for most of the 
year. A top-dressing of bone meal just 
after flowering is a great help in keeping 
the flowers coming every year.
