I love them,too, Artie. I have never grown them myself though. I am anxious to see what you have up your sleeve for us next. I hope that you came home rested and didn't overdo while you were in Texas. xo Diana

Oh, I love the look of them and these images are fan-tastic! But, my kids always complain about the smell...they have an odour that reminds them of.... well, you know.

*** THESE are UBER LOVELY, Artie!!! I always ADORE when many, many, MANY are planted in ONE BIG "WHATEVER"... the mass profusion is overwhelmingly beautiful, IMHO!!!

Found some FAB glass and/or pottery pieces for planting bulbs for friends, using as hostess gifts, etc, & the SEARCH was so FUN!!!

I am SOOOO overdue in planting most of mine... finally got started yesterday, so January should be full of them in the house... The flower/garden shop paper whites will stand in just fine til then, as I know from experience!!! (YES, I admit to being a procrastinator, darn it!!!)>..

ENJOY CHRISTMAS & all its joy n' LOVE in CELEBRATION of His birthday!

It is so funny, your outdoor pots are so similar to what I did last year, and this year I did them the same only I added the dried (golden/brown) limelight hydrangeas like you did.
Paperwhites are my favorite and this has to be my FAVORITE POST this holiday season. I absolutely love paperwhites as they have beautiful long green leaves and stems and the flowers are beautiful and smell great. After the flowers die, I cut the leaves off and I display them in clear glass cylinders. Thanks for sharing this wonderful post.
