Paperwhites Growing



Just another post from me before the weekend. :)

I moved my paperwhite bulbs over to my antique white drop leaf table yesterday and my paperwhite bulbs are starting to sprout like crazy. They are near a heating vent now and I think they like that. I've also been keeping the roots hydrated. These little simple things {like watching my bulbs grow} bring me daily joy! I wonder how long before I have little white paper white blossoms? Before Christmas? Hmm, I'll see! I'll be sure to share more photos of them once they are in full bloom. I don't even remember what a paperwhite smells like! In the nineties I used to work at Pier One Imports for a few years and our manager put in-bloom paperwhites out at the registers every Christmas. It's funny how the scent escapes me right now since it's been years, but I am sure looking forward to smelling them once again.

 Hope you didn't mind two posts from me in one day.
I like to document these sort of things. ;)

Have a wonderful weekend!

  8. I used to pot up some every week so there would be blooms until mid February. I like their look.
