Freesias.

My freesias opened first buds,last friday,of course i can't leave them outside,i cut them off,and put in vase,for scent.I was really surprised when saw them growing flower stems,i thought i will be lucky if they will grow for me this year.Last year i dug out them only in december,and planted only in June.I forgot about them,because they were away from my eyes(in dark and hot shelf).I planted bulbs this time in pots,because last year,when they were in flower,rain damaged petals.This year i easy moved pots in glasshouse,and maybe they will flower until Christmas.

I'm sorry...
