Default 2008-01-27-A - Paperwhite Afternoon_9532.jpg

Here is a set of forced Paperwhites sitting on our windowsill in the
late afternoon sun. My wife abhors the odor from them, but off in a
corner as these are (and behind a screen most of the time), she
tolerates them. I find the fragrance a little "odd"; not strikingly
pleasant, but not offensive either.

I've got to plant more of those.
My patch died a few years ago. Not enough sun. ;-(

Nice pic, thanks!
