. Autumn 1900 : our new guide to rose culture. Giant (Uhite Jlareissas NEW, DISTINCT AND BEAUTIFUL, MAGNIFICENT LARGE FLOWERS. GROWS IN WATER. In offering the Giant White Narcissus we believe it will be nigh impossible to find a single fault in it. It has every virtue to make it the flower for the millions. It will not only grow, but will do so with absolute certainty and produce immense numbers of deliciously scented flowers in an incredibly short time ; in fact, this grand new variety is the earliest flower of all Narcissus, coming into bloom for the Christmas Holidays. CROW IT IN WATER. It succeeds best when grown in water. Place sand or gravel in the bottom of the receptacle in which it is to be grown, firmly imbedding the bulb in it; then keep it well covered in water, as shown in the illustration, and you will not have long to wait until the lovely cluster of large white flowers, whose fragrance is equal to Orange Blossoms, will appear in wonderful profusion, we might truthfully say, in extraordinary quantity. It may be grown in soil like a Hyacinth, but the best and most interesting method is in pebbles and water. TO GET THE BEST EFFECT. Several bulbs (not less than four) should be planted together. Give plenty of sun- shine, and we think all our friends who are fortunate enough to try it will concede that for delicious, refreshing fragrance, immensity of flower and ease of culture it will be hard to find the equal of the Giant White Narcissus. The bulbs we offer are imported direct from France, are large, sound and solid, sure to grow and bloom. Price—Postpaid by Mail, 2 for 10 cts.; 6 for 25 cts.; 50 cts. per doz.
