hyacinths


If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft,
And from thy slender store, two loaves alone to the are left,
Sell one, and with the dole
Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.
-Moslih Eddin Saadi (from The Garden of Roses)

Great flowers. They smell wonderful, and they come up year after year on their own.

And they feed your soul.

OK, OK, I'll admit it. I like to see them popping up year after year. Along with the daffodils and freesia. So Cal *does* have it's gardening pleasures.
