    Mimi forced some bulbs to start, and this is the result.

    Wow Tom, that first one...that is one impressive Christmas tree! But somehow I don't think it came from a bulb! LOL

    Sorry, something went wrong at Photobucket, the Christmas tree is just under the bulbs. I'll try to repost the bulbs

    I can nearly smell those narcissi all the way here! :D I think I need to force some bulbs myself, and get some primula once the Christmas stuff is out of the way. Your tree looks lovely, too.

    Well I love the Christmas tree pics, and i love the paperwhite narcissi also. I can't keep them in the house as they make my lot all start sneezing and wheezing.
