Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Rock-Garden, Vol. 2 Nama Rockrothii, from California, has hairy foliage and white or purplish funnels of flowers in terminal heads on stems of 7 or 8 inches. It should be quite easy in open cool soil. Nananthea perpusilla, a very minutely dwarf and rather worthless little microscopic-flowered Composite from Colorado. Narcissus. - The large daffodils are unfitted for the rock-garden, less on account of their stature, indeed, than because they die so untidily, in flopping masses of yellow decay. For its higher reaches, however, if it be large enough in scale, they look superb, and their decadence is not noticed (still less if enshrouded by degrees in the developing leafage of such a thing as Potentilla nepalensis Willmottiae). But the smaller daffodils have their place everywhere in the foreground, and the most delicate of them rejoice in the conditions of the water-bed (and, indeed, they all like a generous supply of moisture at the root while growing). The most exquisite of all, the silver-pale N. Bulbocodium monophyllus, should have, of course, the daintiest corner, in soil almost wholly sandy, and very damp in spring, under the lee of a hot rock; and over the whole garden may be peppered the minute charm of N. minimus, a real miniature golden-trumpet daffodil of 2 inches or less, that is never in the way; and, for the rest, are there not elaborate catalogues consecrated entirely to their worship, their needs, their beauties, and their preposterous prices? Nardosmia fragrans is no more than Tussilago fragrans of former days; and N. frigida is, accordingly, hardly less close itself to the giant Coltsfoots, so valuable for their sweet and dowdy blooms in winter.
