attention VMany types multiply until thy crowd when they should be lifted divided and replanted over larger area gt wThe principal difference between the typES is in the size of the trum pets which vary from the large trumpet varieties which When well grown rise two feet high with ow ers six inches across and trumpets three inches long to the poeticus type whose trumpets are mere cups usuallyofbright red Hybrid varieties between these sizes While large trumpets are so far limited in color to white and yellow there fare medibm va etieswhich havered trumpeter combined petals in viv err emes have trumpets ofvary Breeders have long sought to iproduce pink daffodils and few varieties have been introduced which have trumpets faintly suf fused withpink when grown in greenhouses orin shady places outdoors But this color fades quickly in the sun Daffodils thrive in woods where they can be naturalized and grow lwiih little attention They like to nestle at the feet of shrubs or un der trees where they blossom be fore the leavescome out in loca tions which then are in the sun but later will be shaded They are seldom lifted oftener than once in three years But never plant them where their foliage will be cut off before itturns yellow which in dicates that new bulb has been fornied and has matured Some of them are delightfully fragrant They are ideal cut ow ers as is shown bythe quantities lot daffodils forced and sold by orists each winter The trumpet lvarieties are easily grown as house plants prevlded only that the at mosphere is not too dry in which case buds often
