Nancissus- Daffodils 
Large Double Nose Bulbs That Should Produce Two, Three and Four Flowers. 
Daffodils are very easy to grow, they thrive in any good soil and in just about any 
location. Plant them in clumps of six to a dozen bulbs among the perennial plants 
and in the foreground of shrubbery and evergreens. Planted in large masses through 
woodlands and along hillsides and in meadows, they give a most pleasing effect. They 
will increase in beauty and number without any special care and soon become per- 
manently established. Plant Daffodil bulbs about 6 inches deep and 6 inches apart 
as early in the fall as possible
