We visited Longwood Gardens on Monday
and they had their paper white bulbs out for sale in the gift shop.
I like when they are sold loose like this,
I can buy just the right number of bulbs to fit in my "paper white" pot.
Six fit perfectly,
and because they have large sprouts, 2 inches or more, they were ready to plant!
My "just add ice" orchid is in full bloom,
it has eleven gorgeous flowers on it.
I purchased this orchid way back when on the cheap in the food store...
3 ice cubes per week, and it blooms beautifully.
I have had this Cyclamen Plant forever as well,
My basil was not looking so well,
leggy and stringy, the basil leaves were small.
So I gave the plant a toss, added new soil and seeds to the pot,
and now we will have fresh basil all winter.

It's a tiny little garden, just enough to bring me a little joy!
