the paperwhites have burst open so pretty but oh so stinky!! maybe its just me? they got quite tall and kept falling over so i cut them and put them in a vase it seemed to tone down the smell thankfully :D
Lovely indeed. I don't mind the smell of paperwhites, but I normally put mine in a hallway where their scent disperses throughout the house in a gentle way, rather than when cooped up in one place. And we all react differently to smell, of course. I have hyacinths starting to open. I just. can't. wait.!
Bryan brought this plant home from the .99 store and we had no idea what it was called but it sure smelled....thanks for posting I'll let him know what it is now...:-D
Hi Tabby, Paperwhites are SO pretty, but you are right!! They do not smell nice. Still, it is a miracle how they bloom around here in the freezing weather. Thank you for dropping by!!!
too funny, you and I are a lot alike Love the "look" of paperwhites, but I cannot even be in the same room with them...the smell really gets me! Happy Winter Tabby! oxo

I love that smell and can almost smell them as I look at your photos. Thanks for stopping by my blog Tammy.
