Bulbs
We put two paperwhite bulbs in bulb vases two weeks ago and added water.
They are almost 8 inches tall already! The girls are really enjoying watching them grow. It's great because you can see the roots as well as the shoots. I usually plant amaryllis but they take forever to grow and use dirt not vases so they are not as exciting. Just a thought for those long winter months. Anyone else have something fun to do? -- Erin Morgan and Megan 2/15/97 Evan 5/14/00 |

They are almost 8 inches tall already! Wow! I didn't know they grew that fast! I have been thinking about getting some. I'm NOT good with plants though.....always manage to kill them. Are the paperwhites pretty hardy? Just a thought for those long winter months. Anyone else have something fun to do? Sadly we haven't seen even a hint of winter yet. It's been around 84 degrees here all week....Yuck! I'm ready for Fall!! Andrea twin girls-Madison & Jordan 3/22/00 |

I'll trade you for a couple days! ;-) We've only barely got above freezing in the middle of the day for the past week. I think the highest it's been is 39. Our lows have been in the single digits. Back to the OP, that's a good idea. I've been trying to come up with some nice indoor ideas. I'll have to look for some of those bulbs. -- Leslie Alex and Jordan, 06 May 2000 |

Yes, Paperwhites tend to grow pretty fast. Amaryllis is slower. Yu can
find a lot of kits with plants, flowers, herbs at stores like Frank's or Michael's (crafty stores) They are even cheaper after Christmas! Herbs might be cool, b/c then they can help you cook with them! ~Megan~ Aidan Matthew & Alexis Valerie Born September 28, 2002 www.babiesonline.com/babies/a/aidannalexis |
