The Problem with Poinsettias…

February 18, 2013

Primrose, Gertens, greenhouse

The problem with poinsettias is they last too long…

Primrose, Gertens, greenhouse

It doesn’t seem right to complain, but I can’t look at my red poinsettias any more.  They are so perfect in November, December, even January…

but by mid-February, I long for a colorful change of pace…

Something with a sunny countenance, like a primrose…

Any color–except red!

I love the galvanized buckets!

So if you need a little color in your life (and The Inbox Jaunt and Color Route Co aren’t sufficient)  head over to your nearest greenhouse for a little pick-me-up!

Tomorrow…we’ll have a colorful tutorial…don’t miss it!

And for more colorful inspiration read here and here and here…
