Blooming Day in Mid-December

There is nothing in bloom in the snowy garden, it's December and weather is cold and frosty. The indoor plants are in bloom now, despite on dark and short wintry days. The first one is Dendrobium nobile, the nice fragrant orchid that grows three years in my home and blooms every December. 


I always wait for its beautiful flowers when the small buds appear. 



Dendrobium nobile

Pelargonium have started to flourish well. The last months they had a rest after transportation from the garden.  Here are 'Royal' and 'Zonal' varieties:




I've written in my post in May 2018 that I propagated Saintpaulia (African violet) and planted one leaf in a small pot. Look at this, now it's an adult plant that has a first flower. It's known that the variety always persists due this method of plant breeding.




Little Christmas cacti continue blooming, their fuchsia color flowers open every day. That's all for December. Hopefully next month my indoor plants are in bloom:-) 




Happy Garden Blog Blooming Day!

  1. What a lovely post, Nadezda! Such cute flowers. <3
    Your header photo is gorgeous too!
    Thank you very much for your comment today! I bought the slippers at Prisma and I'm very happy with them. The red, cute ones are for my mother and the dark grey, stylish ones are for me. :)
    As you surely know, Prisma sells also online... Unfortunately I didn't find exactly these slippers on their website.
    Thank you for the link too. I hadn't heard the song before but I know the singer is very popular at the moment. Here (https://genius.com/Jarkko-ahola-mielenrauhaa-lyrics) you can find the lyrics. I believe you can understand them rather well - and I'm always ready to help. :)
    Have a lovely weekend!

  2. That orchid is gorgeous. I would love to get a whiff of the fragrance. I might have to look for one of these. I have some phalaenopsis orchids that are putting up their wands for blooms now. I placed them out on the patio this summer. They didn't like it so they are a little behind. Keep warm...

    1. Lisa, these Dendrobiums are easy in growth more than phalaenopsis. They bloom every year.
      Happy Sunday!

  4. You must enjoy your lovely white Dendrobium orchid when it begins to bloom. So nice to have a scented plant in the home. The Christmas cacti are very pretty too. I like that delicate colour.
    Hope you are enjoying these days before Christmas and keeping warm.
