The frost has done it's work, and there are no more blooms left in the garden...
But that's okay, because things are flowering inside.
I put my Peace Lily outside this summer and the leaves got a little too much sun, but she doesn't seem to mind too much - just look at that big beautiful bloom!
And there's a second on coming too.
The Christmas cactus also spent the summer in yard, and not long after I brought her back in she started to bud up.
Those buds should start bursting into blooms any day now, right on time.
Those who've been around for a couple years know a while back, I went a little crazy with Phalaenopsis orchids. I managed to kill them all but one. At the start of the summer, I took it to the office where I have a big north-facing window.
She's so happy there, she started blooming again! Love that pretty dark pink.
And last, but no least, the grocery store had a big display of Amaryllis and Paperwhite kits, and I just couldn't resist.
It will be a little while before they bloom..
Probably just in time for Christmas!
I just planted an amaryllis and can't wait to see it bloom. My Christmas cactus's are not looking as happy this year, big heavy sigh!
ReplyDeleteI still need to get a Christmas cactus again. I had one before my move but had to leave it behind with a new owner. Sigh I love that deep dark pink too and the Paperwhites are so neat looking!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to have them in the house and cheering up the place!!
ReplyDeleteI just brought some plants in yesterday-I used to have houseplants up north but just haven't thought of it here but now I have remedied that!
Looks like you'll have a very FLOWERY December.
ReplyDeleteMy cyclamen is doing well. Other than one air plant, it is all I have plant-wise. Come spring . . . look out! I'll be a planting fool!
Wow you have so many things ready to bloom!!
ReplyDeleteAck! I think I finally killed my Christmas Cactus; no buds at all. Bummer.
ReplyDeleteI have such fond memories of my Mom's Christmas Cactus. It was huge. She could make anything grow.
