FRENCH GROWN GIANT WHITE NARCISSUS 
THE MOST SATISFACTORY WINTER-BLOOMING HOUSE PLANT 
They will bloom in water from 6 to 8 weeks from time of planting if not 
planted too early. The fiowers are large, attractive in color and very fragrant. 
A very unique and simple way to grow them is to place 6 or 8 bulbs in a 
shallow bowl with water; support the bulbs with pebbles and place tht bowl 
in the dark until the roots have started, when they should be brought into the 
light. Change the water occasionally to keep it pure. From our experiments 
November, December and January plantings give best results.
