Freesias - at last...

Two years ago I planted fifty mixed Freesia bulbs in anticipation of a good show. I was disappointed; not a single bloom! In fact, very few bulbs produced even a couple of leaves.

I considered digging them up but decided to give them another chance. Earlier this year the foliage appeared and in early March the first flower buds appeared.

Now, after a long wait, we've finally got freesia in flower and what a lovely sight they make!

Certainly worth the wait!
