Awakening


Pots of beauty,
ready after a summers slumber
to bloom again.

Yes, we had many years Pip, of rotten bulbs, fit only for the bin until I stopped looking after them, seriously, after years of watering and fretting over the pots of bulbs, I now put them on a shelf in the garage after they have finished flowering and leave them, no water, no real light.
Taking them down around the end of November, finding green shoots, magic.
Good water and trim off any old growth, seems to set them right.
