Paperwhites: A Christmas Flower.
So I’ve had this obsession for Paper whites, the well know Christmas flowering Bulb. I was so excited when they were selling them at my local Home Depot a few weeks back so I snatched a plant right up!
There’s one catch… They stink. Oh do they ever!!! Does anyone else find this?
Stunning, but oh so ever hard on the nose…
Aren’t these little flowers so simple and stunning? I think they speak for themselves if I must say so myself!
Oh no …….. what do they smell like? Is it that peppery like smell or is it something else? But they are oh so pretty…… Regardless, have a wonderful holiday Jodi!!
Ever smelled the dried mushrooms and such in the shops in Chinatown? Something like that.
I LOVE the smell… they smell like Christmas to me! And, so pretty!!
I love them, but have never tried to grow my own. I just finished commenting to Meesh – I Dream of Chairs – that I might be tempted to try them one of these years. But between your post and hers, hmmmmm, I will definitely have to factor in their scent, before I dive in!
I love the look of these! Perfect for a holiday table! Not sure though now that you mention a smell 🙁
Merry Christmas to you Jodi & Darryl! Hope you have a wonderful holiday with your family.

They are BEAUTIFUL!! Not sure why I have never seen these before but I like them way better then a poinsettia. Merry Christmas!!
call me crazy but I love the smell….what I don’t love is that for the 50th time I have tried to add you to my blog roll!
What ever is my problem!
I will have to be patient I just finally got Rosa on my roll!
Great job on your nieces dresser & bedroom by the way…amazing!
