Narcissus in Winter

I've been playing with my 'new' camera lately. It's not really new, per se, as it was a gift from hubby last summer, but just recently have I felt ready to try it out. Yes, I admit I'm a little bit of a Techno-phobe. I'm pretty comfie with things that work just fine and why go complicate things.
My old camera still works fine......but...not as good as my new one. hehe

I bought some flower bulbs from Jackson's Band Fall Fundraiser and decided to force the Paper White Narcissus bulbs into a winter bloom. I planted the bulbs about 2 weeks before Christmas and they have just started blooming, in time for the New Year!




It's amazing that something so lovely can come from something so ugly.
One of the stalks was damaged by our new puppy just as they emerged. The stalk never developed past that point. These flowers are very delicate.
