Please do not ask me to pronounce that flowers name!
When my mother moved in 2010 the landlord told her she could dig up all the flowers since he was landscaping
I took this plant that looked like Onions
There were no flowers at all on it, never saw any the year before either.
Well this Spring I got the flower (the only 1 too) on the left.
It bloomed, was so pretty, but never got another.
Then in August the flowers on the right showed up.
Very cool plant! I had no idea what it was so I posted it on my Blog asking if anyone knew.
Many friends told me it was a Narcissus. I googled it, sure enough that's what they look like. I had no idea it could have 2 different flowers in one plant. Unless there are 2 species of it in one clump????
Chantsie's challenge...
1 – Have at least one photo per layout.
.... I have 2
2 – Choose two embellishments for each page, such as ribbon and flowers, or rhinestones and stickers.
...cheated, I am using MDS, this layout is form the Convention Album
3 – Use at least three colours on each page or layout (if you do a two page layout the colours can be the same on both pages).
Not sure what the colors are since I used a MDS Digital Page
The letters M and N must appear in your title or somewhere prominent on your page.
It's not a pretty French word, but Narcissus are pretty!
Thanks for looking!

Vicki, I love your garden album! It is inspiring me to do one.
My DH has gorgeous flowers, and I take all these photos every year, so I should be ready!

Gorgeous page! I love those colours.
Narcissus is a bulb. You can lift them up and separate all the 'babies' it will make after flowering, but if you leave it, like you have, your clump will just grow thicker. Either way is good. (But if you wanted to spread them out, that's how you get them)
Narcissus is said: Nah siss iss/uss (depending on your accent!)
Put some tulips and other bulbs around them and you'll have a very pretty garden after winter.
