Just thinking of all I saved!

My order of 1/2 price bulbs from Brent and Becky's Bulbs arrived today.

Amaryllis bellodonna, with lovely pink blossoms in the late summer or fall.

Lilium 'Black Beauty'. Five of them , and I was thinking of sharing one or two, but I have talked myself out of that. Mine, mine, mine.

Fifty each of triteleia 'Corrina' and triteleia 'Queen Fabiola'. I have never grown these, I may share some of them. Like maybe half. This is triteleia.

Yes, that would soothe my selfish conscience. Maybe.

I have 4 big blue-enameled mugs that are planted with narcissus. They are doing nicely, and I am going to give them to the 'girls' at the Extension office. I doubt they will bloom by Christmas, but it would be o.k. if they don't bloom until later. Something to look forward to in the nasty grey days of January.

Paperwhites and hyacinths make great Christmas gifts, in bloom or anticipating... covers that long gap between Christmas and Valentine's Day.
