  12. Dear Nadezda. I see you have showed us some beautiful flowers from inside your home. It must be to cold to grow tulips and hyacinth flowers in this time of year outside in your country. They look so vibrant and colourful. In my garden I can see the first crocuses emerging. You have to wait a little longer, but remember the best is still to come! Warm groetjes Hetty

    1. You're right Hetty, there is too cold to grow vernal flowers outside. But I have some potted tulips in my greenhouse. When the sun warms the first flowers will sprout there.

    1. This dendrobium is fragrant that was a surprise for me, Tistou. It's coming spring.

  17. Orchids are beautiful and interesting but somehow strange. I always love the look of hyacinths close up, all those tiny flowers going to make up one large one. I am always pleased to see Spring flowers!

    1. Sigrid, I have had many phalaenopsis and can say that dendrobium is easier to grow than phalaenopsis, it flowers more often. Some of dendrobiums and mine too are fragrant.

  19. I'd like to give those Hyacinths a sniff.

  22. Beautiful flowers in the house Nadezda, that's what we need in winter. Here spring was on her way but we are set back in winter, it's freezing cold and next week they presume we can skate outside......
