This is the Narcissus Orietttalis, and the variety grown by Chinamen for decorating their temples or Joss-houses on their New Year's Day, which occurs in February. For the most part they are grown in water in fancy howls, with just enough pebbles around them to keep them from toppling over. (See illustration.) They can also be grown in pots in soil, sand or moss; in fact, they usually do much better when grown in this way than in water. We annually import from China a large quantity of the finest quality bulbs,-and if planted on arrival (about October 1st) they will flower by Christmas, and a succession of flowers can be had by mak- ing several plantings. The white and yellow flowers are borne in clusters and are highly scented. bulbs, 10 cts. each; 3 for 25 cts.; 90 cts. per doz.
