Snowdrops (a bulb) in containers on the porch: calendula, primrose, "million bells", osteospermum, and ornamental cabbage family members...
inside--hyacinth, narcisus, Gypsy Earrings (a succulent or bromiliad?) Christmas Cactus, and another house plant that i do not know the name of (it is a viney-thing with a bamboo trellis in the pot. the blossoms are sort of white papery things...(sort of like Bouganvilla)balloon-y shaped with a small red berry-looking bloom sticking out of the center... i wonder if this rings a bell with anyone who might know hwat it is called? i have been told it might be in teh coffee family...
