Small Miracle

Every March every year I replant the dry rhizomes of Achimenes, aka Hot Water Plants.  They grow and flower through the Summer and are dormant by late Autumn.  This year I had some left over rhizomes which languished in in a paper bag until I discovered them in October.  Thinking there was a little life left in them I potted  a few up .... and here is the first flower.  A small miracle of nature's ability to survive.

A quiet Sunday.  Feeling less rough this morning, I managed a couple of hours if sort, tidy, clean in the living room.  I never did like dusting :-( Enough space for the tree  .... and a bit left over :-)
