There are no hardy plants which have more points of merit than the Narcissus. Perfectly hardy
in all latitudes, if planted in well-drained ground they multiply and increase in attraction each year.
They are as easily forced as the hyacinth, and a conscant succession of flowers may be had from Jan-
uary to the middle of May. The flowers are among the most attractive of blooms, very lasting and
of endless variety of form and coloring. It is important that they be not too strongly forced, other-
wise the culture is very simple.
