purple

One of my Christmas presents. I wish I could share the scent with you, as well as the color.

I can smell it.
I almost bought some paperwhites for that very reason.
Is there anything like that?
Lily of the Valley, maybe?

Paperwhites, hyacinths, lily of the valley -- all have very heavy scent for non-tropical plants....

I have paperwhites in my office. I bought them as forced bulbs, and that first year, with many stems of bloom, they were pretty overpowering.

I hoped they would bloom, a little, this year, but I don't think they will.

I love the smell of all of these plants, but a little goes a long way....

One hyacinth at a time is good.
