Narcissus are among the earli- 
est spring-flowering bulbs and 
as such are most welcome. Their 
gay yellow and white, and cream 
and orange blooms seem to be the 
very essence of the new season. 
It is well to plant them where 
they will have shrubs or ever- 
greens as a background. Smaller 
kinds are very effective in the 
rock garden, and for a superb 
spring picture there is nothing to 
surpass a large planting of nat- 
uralized Narcissus. 
These bulbs are very hardy 
and may be left in the ground 
ee a= = undisturbed for several seasons. 
ag . 2 oe ~» They need a well-drained loca- 
1A LORD oe s tion. Plant the bulbs 4 to 5 
NELSON inches deep, as early as possible 
in the fall. Smaller and fewer 
flowers after a few years indicate that the bulbs need to 
be dug up and replanted.
