Hyacinths and Orchids


I have a terracotta pot outdoors which I just forget about every year and it is always fun to see a pretty pink Hyacinth just appear.
Now that we have passed the shortest day here in New Zealand, I always think that Spring will be on its way in a few months.

On the shortest day I planted some garlic - a friend was telling me that you  plant a few garlic cloves in the ground or pot,  and in approximately 4-6 months,  they magically turn into  bulbs of garlic. Fingers crossed, hope mine grow and will let you know. How about you... have you grown your own garlic?

Wishing you all a fun weekend,  and thank you to all my fabulous readers.
