Paperwhite

Another kind of bulbs I planted was Paperwhite (Narcissus).  I remember my mom planted them by the front door, and I loved how they smelled in early spring.  As a young girl, I used to squat to smell the flowers - suddenly, I get nostalgic - so, why not planting them?

I am sorry about the blurry picture, but this is a bulb of Paperwhite - it's much larger than a Freesia bulb.

The instruction says the bulbs need to be planted in 6-inch deep.  Wow, can they really manage to shoot out of the ground if they are planted so deep?  I wonder how lont it will take?

Noted on the craft stick is the date (10-4-10) I planted the bulbs, and I placed some wires so I wouldn't accidentally dig the site.
