I always start my paperwhites the week of Thanksgiving.
It’s so nice to have something growing and blossoming indoors this time of year.

Timing
Each year I try to time the Amaryllis bulbs to open as close to Christmas as possible.
This bulb just began to show it’s pretty holiday red color…maybe this is the one for this year.
I tucked the pot into a vintage grain sack sleeve.

It’s getting to be that time

Autumn Chores
I long for the bulbs to arrive,
for the early Autumn chores are melancholy,
but the planting of bulbs is the work of hope and is always thrilling.
