Forced Hyacinth




If you recall, I blogged about starting this hyacinth back in November. Now it is blooming. To keep it long lasting, I put it in the coolest room at night and bring it out during the day to enjoy it.

Winter Bloom

While out for my noon walk, I found this witchhazel blooming by the Flinthills Discovery Center. One of my 4 witchhazels are in bloom at home. I love these plants since they add interest to the landscape when nothing else is in bloom. Mine are in part shade. This one and the one beside it is in full sun. Time will tell how well all of them do.
