My Mum always did this and I’ve done it ever since I inherited the glasses. You have to get ‘prepared’ bulbs and pop them in a dark place with their bases just touching the water. When roots develop and the tops appear you can bring them into the light and then watch them go! I plant them out later but they are never as big again. Have a go! 🙂

Yes, the scent. It wafts through the room into the hallway and is so pleasing. 🙂

There are more coming too. This year they have not come all at once which has meant the loveliness lingers. 😊

Me too and when they are indoors their scent is even more powerful. 🙂
