"More than anything, I must have flowers, always, always." When I say that I love flowers, it is no exaggeration. I cannot imagine a world without them! Our winters are far too harsh for any flowers outdoors, but I am so thankful to have these Paperwhites blooming cheerfully on the kitchen windowsill! (They are actually not in a vase...I was going to cut them if they got too "leggy", but so far they have been fine). Sometimes when I'm working in the kitchen, I'll suddenly get a whiff of their perfume. They are wonderful! I like how the sun shines through the petals... You can see what others have found to brighten their winter day at Rambling in the Garden.

What great photos, Joanna - thanks for sharing them. I acquired a pack of these bulbs as part of my bargain bulb purchase on Saturday and have just planted them in a glass vase with pebbles. They have such a strong fragrance, as you say, but it will good to have them
