White hyacinths - Blissful White Wednesday

Hello Sweet Friends,

How is the week treating you so far???

Hope yall are having much better weather

by now........I have seen those pics and

feeling bad for yall................thank

goodness for inside projects....right??

It's been a good week here so far, been 

out a lot these last few days, back to the 

dentist on Monday to get my retainers and 

then figured I would go to Sam's and of 

course, had to get my smoothie reward

let's not forget that!!  lol

Grocery shopping yesterday and ran in the

dollar tree store for a few minutes, and 

found some really pretty blue glasses,
 have wanted some for ages, but never
saw any I really liked, so those puppies 
came right home with me.  So  I moved
 my pink ones out to go to the hospice 
resale shop and put the new blue ones 
in their place............

and of course, today was our day to 

have our lil darling.  She is really on

the move more all the time.  Megan

said she took 5 steps on her own last

night, the last 3 being very quick. She

 did take a step or 2 here today, but 

not quite confident enough to know

she can do it.  She learned today to

 turn pages in her book when I am

 reading it to her, and to crawl under

 a chair, and to open the sliding mirror

closet doors, and something else too

can't remember right now.  lol

Anyway she is a hoot!

Well,  since hubby and I happened to

see these hyacinths at the grocery 

store in a bulb vase,  we decided to

get them for the fun of watching them

grow and because they smell wonderful.

Have never had any before, but I have

found they have a mind of their own

just like tulips do...............

Wish I would have thought to get a

pic the night we brought them home,

cause it was remarkable how fast

they grew,  by the next day we were

shocked at the difference from the

night before.......and I didn't decide

to take pics till they started to bloom.

Anyway, thought they would make

a nice Blissful white Wed. post.

notice they are straight up

one is mostly open,  and the fragrance is 

truly divine...........

All you do is keep filling it with water, 

 but you must keep the bulb out of the 

water.

It drinks water pretty rapidly

and seems to change quite a bit afterwards

notice it is leaning now.  That was

the next morning after I water it again.

the next day it was really leaning

At one point it was leaning so much it was

starting to fall over, so I sort of angled

the bulb so it would be upright

Then the next morning it fell over 

completely on the table and the bulb was

 out of the vase and part of the roots were, 

(forgot to take a picture)

 so I filled it with water again 

and this is what it looked like 
today!
and as the day has gone on it has 
gotten straighter over the bulb 
just like how it was when we first
brought it home...........Crazy!
but Fun.........................like
having a floral science project!


Thanks for stopping in............
and say hello if you have some time.

Really wish I could send you the fragrance
