DAFFODILS and NARCISSUS 
The cheery, exquisitely-formed flowers 
of Daffodils bring spring into your gar- 
den. Plant them deeply (at least 6 inches) 
in enriched well-drained soil in sun or 
partial shade from Mid-September to 
December. Many small groups of 3 to 6 
bulbs of a variety are most effective in 
the garden; the natural effect is half 
their charm. All varieties are easily 
flowered in pots.
