Monday, Flower Day!

Jane over at Small, But Charming challenged a bunch of us to photograph whatever flowers (or other growing things) we have in the house today.

I have a lovely pot of purple hyacinths. They came straight from the grocery store last week and took a couple of days to open fully. I kept moving them away from the fireplace so that they would be perfect today.

I had hoped to show you either camellias or hellebores, but neither is in bloom yet. Both are late, late, late! Maybe next week.

Go see what Jane has going, too.

  6. Thanks, all. Glad the hyacinths touched a spot for everyone! I'm up for doing this a couple of weeks until it finally warms up - you know, in August!
