Narcissi

Well, I have to admit that we have been remiss in our duties to our dear readers. So, today, we've got a a couple of things to show off.

Item 1 - these paper-white narcissi that have graced our living room for the last week or so. They started as bulbs from the White Flower Farm, which we only got around to forcing a few weeks ago. The yield has been pretty good all the same - about 80% of the ones we planted in vases of rocks amount to something. We hardly need anymore white in our lives these days (we've had snow cover now for over 100 days), but these are at least pretty and aromatic while being white.
