I had a small pot of freesias that got completely overlooked in 2012. No water at all, all year. Rediscovered it in late summer 2013 when I was repotting. Sh*t oh dear! About half the corms (of 6) had vanished. Breathed heavily on the others (CO2 helps, right?), repotted, gave extra attention. And today I have a flower! One corm of three has substantial textured peachy yellow flower open, lowest on the spike of 5 buds. No name, but lovely just the same. The other two corms are still teeny tiny but hope springs eternal for next year. Hope also springs that Spring will, eventually, arrive. So sometimes our errors of omission with the watering can are forgiven.

And daylight savings time begins tomorrow? I'd rather have saved some warmer weather! --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com/
