DOUBLE. Double flowered 
Narcissi or Daffodils have showy 
flowers, some with all yellow 
petals and some of two colors. 

POETICUS. Called the Poet's 
Daffodil, this group has white 
perianths and a small, flattened 
crown or eye that may be lemon 
or yellow edged with crimson or 
scarlet. Poeticus do well in par- 
tial shade and make fine cut 
flowers. 
JONQUILLA. We list but one, Trevithian, a Jonquil 
hybrid with small, delicately scented short-crowned flowers, 
lemon-yellow throughout. Two or more blooms appear 
on a stem. 
TRIANDRUS. Thalia is a Triandrus hybrid, with very 
small white blossoms in clusters of two or three, and 
with reflexed petals. It is fine for rock gardens or 
naturalizing.

We offer high quality bulbs in an excellent range of 
colors, and in two sizes — Exhibition or First Size 
(18-19 cm.) and Bedding Size (15-16 cm.). 
The smaller bulbs are better for 
outdoor use, as the spikes are then 
not too heavy and are less apt to 
bend or break. 
For outdoor bedding, plant the 
bulbs 5 inches deep and 6 to 8 
inches apart. In northern United 
States and Canada they should have 
some protection in Winter. For in- 
door growth, do not use new clay 
pots unless they have been soaked 
in water for two weeks. Use rich loam and have the top 
of the bulb about even with the surface of the soil, one 
in a 5- or 6-inch pot. 
14 97 ¥ ¥F ¥ ¥ ¥ CROCUSES 
Crocuses are usually planted 
in borders, or in random patches 
about the lawn, 2 inches deep, 
where they bloom very early and 
are unharmed by later mowings. 
Indoors they may be grown in 
light soil. Water them well and 
keep them in a dark place about 
six weeks or until the top growth 
starts.
