Sometimes Monday ...

 ... is a day to check on my hyacinth's progress. 

Lots of roots, the stems are coming up, and hopefully, I'll have buds and blossoms soon. 

And look, a bonus geranium bud, too!


Here's hoping there is something good happening in your world this Monday!

  1. Oh, those green-growies give me some serious vicarious joy! (Especially that bonus geranium bud.) Bulbs and buds in the dead of winter are truly Good Things. Thanks for sharing yours. XO

  2. I love watching plants like this. I need to remember to force some bulbs.

  3. If you can believe it, I have some hyacinth shoots poking up outside! Of course, they're completely frozen now that we've had some snow and really cold temps, so I hope they go back to sleep until it's really time for them to come up.

  6. We always have a few scraggly geraniums in the garden room in winter and their little flowers are so nice to see!

  7. Your plants look so pretty! I usually keep a couple of geraniums over the winter, but this year I couldn't keep them alive. Yours looks ready to bloom!

    1. And I feel especially lucky with any geranium blossoms I get because those are just clippings I took from one I had outside last summer and stuck in water in a vase. I was going to pot them in soil once they rooted but I think I might leave them alone for the winter.

  8. Your thumb must be glow in the dark neon green, Bonny! Those plants are eagerly taking off. That is always a hopeful site.

  10. It's great to see your bulbs coming to life. A geranium bud on a January day is a very good thing. The sun came out this afternoon and that was a good thing on a Monday.

  11. My Monday was lovely and now I need to get some indoor plants because I am having a major case of amaryllis envy
