Thank you, Jack! I read about jasminum nudiflorum somewhere that it is not fragrant like other jasmines, as is the case with my flowers. However, my jasmine is never naked and the flowers are not shaped like a trumpet, in my opinion! Here is a twisted closer view of my flowers. On the twisted...

Kassaundra, perhaps Mimosa pudica ( sensitive plant) resembles your roadside wild flower, except for the color, of course. Photo from the Internet

Kassaundra, Pretty flower indeed!. Powder puff comes in purple, pink, white, and perhaps in other colors. I hear it is hardy in south Florida. Leaves are distinct. Here is a borrowed picture: Picture From Internet

And here is Chico!

Smart Red, Love the the contrast, short-lived springy paperwhites and old wintery bare trees in the background.

Smart Red, Ok, I'll be better! Lavender 2 is right. Red dwarf powder puff - Calliandra haematocephala. It came from Emerald Goddess Gardens - a wonderful nursery in Wauchula, FL. Tel 863-773-4015. It costs about $10 + reasonable shipping! Lavender 2, the dwarf variety does well in a pot in a...

My best amaryllis this year.

Thistlebloom and Mary, Foliage and flowers of my yellow jasmine don't match with Carolina Jasmine's. If you click on the little picture, you get a bigger picture. Masoud

Greetings! I have this jasmine with no name! It is blooming now in my greenhouse. In zone 8, where it is a perennial it blooms late in Feb. It has single and double yellow flowers. It is the only jasmine I know that its blooms are not fragrant, at day or at night. JackB? Anybody? Masoud

I'm a bit jealous of your climate, rebbetzin! My nasturtiums have a long way to blooming, but at least they are not buried under snow! They'll have their day in the garden. Masoud

PhilaGardener, Welcome to the community! I'm new myself, and it's fun to be here. Masoud, a former Philadelphian missing Philly!

Cat, the picture of your night blooming cereus is gorgeous! I have not had the fortune of seeing an actual bloom, and life is short! Everybody, Many thanks for warm "welcomes"! Masoud

It's my first day here. I already feel at home! Thanks for the "welcome"! Masoud

Thank you for welcoming me, Mary. Paperwhites normally produce at least one flower stalk, sometimes more, depending on the bulb size. Often, some bulbs develop before others. I'll try to upload a picture of Winter Sun. They are tall, but if they are kept cool, they stay upright. Yellow...

Thistlebloom, Thank you for the greeting! I live in SE Michigan, zone 5b. My winter bloomers, except for orchids, jasmines, paperwhites, and an amaryllis, are in my greenhouse. Masoud

so lucky, I have hyacinths developing their roots in my cool garage. They are in different stages, but all are generally late, this year. I will take the first basket to my greenhouse by the end of the week to get them to bloom in February. Mary, paperwhites will not bloom again next year. If...

Tibouchina urvilleana has been a fantastic bloomer this winter in my greenhouse. It is compact and does not require a lot of direct sun to bloom. Above is a photo I took. Masoud
