Paperwhite Narcissus Bulbs
All you need is a pretty bowl, some pebbles, a few bulbs and sunshine.
Paperwhites only need 3″ of root space and bring the water up to the root line.
Planted at Thanksgiving for December blossoms.
A family tradition.

Cold Treatment
To force bulbs for February blooms they need the cold treatment.
35 to 48 degrees for at least 12-13 weeks.
The greenhouse or potting shed work well for this or even the vegetable drawer of your refrigerator.
Bring out when they are done chilling and force in jars or pots.
You can enjoy blooms indoors long before the garden wakes up in the spring.

So Fashion
Each year the Pantone Color Institute selects color trends.
This Fall color selections included an earthy green color that some labeled Herb. I love that!
Another of the colors for this season is called Oak Buff, or as I like to call it–mustard.
When I turned over these mushrooms that I found today on a walk I couldn’t help but smile.
Mother Nature is the best designer!
