There were more paperwhite blooms just days ago. That was before the neighborhood cat was hit by a car, buried by the children among the bulbs, and the paperhite blooms picked and laid over the gravesite. Grace allowed the site to be among her flowers at the home she is restoring in Brenham, Texas. Her 1920's Central Texas cottage has paperwhites (Narcissus tazetta papyraceous) in the winter and oxblood lilies (Rhodophiala bifida) in the fall. Who knows what the home might have in the spring?
Across the street is a large Victorian home. Most small Texas towns have a few towering Victorian masterpieces, and Brenham is no different.
This is a close up picture of the paperwhites.
