. Catalogue of pot grown and layer strawberries : also a list of bulbous flower roots and specialties for fall planting. Nurseries (Horticulture) New York (State) Rochester Catalogs; Strawberries Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs. TRUMPET NARCISSUS, Narcissus Oribntalis. CHINESE NEW YEARS' LILY. Popularly known as the Chinese Sacred Lily, is a Narcissus of the Polyanthus type, and is an admir- able bulbous plant for house cult- ure. It can be planted any time from October to March, and pro- duces beautiful waxy white frag- rant flowers in great profusion a little over a month after planting. Place the bulbs in a bowl or dish as shown in the annexed illustra- tion, with an inch of fine gravel in the bottom, and enough pebbles or marble chips to hold the bulbs up- right, then fill the bowl about one- half with lukewarm water, and place it in a window or on a table, or an}^ place to suit the purpose. The water should be renewed about once a week, or as often as it evaporates. The bulbs are of good size, and each one throws out four to six flower spikes. No plant that we know of gives so much the trouble. Dur- ing the winter months, when flowers are so scarce it blooms pro- fusely, and is most desirable for house decoration. Deservedly one of the most popular plants for house culture. Should be in every home. Price 30 cents each; $ per CHINESE NARCISSUS.
