Sunshine for Your Soul

Nothing brightens a winter day like a flower! Each winter I plant Amaryllis and Narcissus plants. It's amazing how quickly they grow and how prolifically they bloom. What cheer they add to winter days!

Enjoy a wonderful day! May you find sunshine for your soul today!

  3. Now I could buy an amaryllis...wonder why I haven't thought to do that before. It would be fun to watch it grow.

  6. I always loved having big pots of Amaryllis when I lived in Texas! The blooms always surprise you! I'm so glad we have digital cameras now to take LOTS of pics! Beautiful photo!

  7. Boy... check out my post from last week-end. Ours both bloomed at the same time. We got tulip bulbs for Christmas and it was obviously too late to get them in the ground so we started them in planters. We'll see if we can force tulips to bloom!

  10. Very pretty! I think this is the first year in a long time that we haven't had an amaryllis. I did, however, enjoy the paper whites before Christmas. I have been craving some beautiful flowers lately and your pictures helps.
