Hyacinth & Fresh Moss ~

They’re popping up at
my favorite markets and garden stores.
I’m talking about

Hyacinths!
Some, fantastically fragrant.
Love them in shades of
purple, blue & white.
Tucked into our old French bottle crate
and topped with fresh moss…
they add a breath of spring
to the great indoors. Couldn’t resist the

mini daffs either! What can I say? I’m
a pushover for

beautiful bulbs.
It ‘s another gorgeous,
frosty day here…

Folks are enjoying
the glassy lake.

Have a sunny day,

Happy New Year, Monica! Beautiful photos, my friend. My paperwhites are in full bloom. But not the amaryllis bulbs…..not even foliage. I planted them back in November. They were meant to bloom for Christmas. Oh, well. I’m not giving up….not yet.
Cheers to 2013 ~ Loi
So happy to see a bit of spring right after the holiday season! Love those spring bulbs!

I don’t think there is anything more evocative of Spring than the fragrance of Hyacinths. I just love it. These are beautiful. Unlike Loi, I did give up on my amaryllis, also planted in November, that never showed any signs of life. I tossed it before Christmas. Happy New Year!
