It's paperwhites time!

Another favorite Christmas tradition of mine is having the delightful smell of paperwhites in the air during the holidays. My grandmothers and my mother always grew them when I was a child, and I've grown them myself most holidays during my adulthood.

If you've never had a paperwhites Christmas (or if you just need a refresher tutorial on how to force them), here's a great article that will get you started.

I just finished planting mine...in a Russel Wright bowl. Now there's nothing to do but make sure they have water and wait for the heavenly scent of their blooms.
