Alpine narcissus!! They're great looking. I too am a plant geek, I am a grower for a major plant/seed company that I won't mention but you have in a nearby post. Want to share some seed? I might have something to peak your interest.

Hi Matt,

Sounds like your holiday decorations equaled mine, but from your photos, I think you still did better!

That N. romieuxii ssp. cantabricus is beautiful. I've added some of the winter blooming Narcissus as a result of your blog and magazine. So you can add a check mark next to your list of "expanding others knowledge of the plant world".

These life shifts are a part of growth. And the doing nothing thing seems to be a part of the "I can do it all" but the flip side of this is "I don't want to do it all" and then you do nothing......I'm going Buddhist starting the day after Thanksgiving until January 2nd from here on out.

Wishing you an interesting journey in 2010. May it be filled with creativity and enlightenment!!!!

Wow, those little Morrocan narcissus look like the yellow bulbocodiums that are so sweet.

Yes, Narcissus does have a kind of ammonia-like aroma, too many in too close a space. I usually keep mine in an unheated laundry room, the fragrance isn't so heady where it's cool.

Matt:
There is something about the winter holidays that breeds procrastination in many of us - myself included. I have been hunkered down in front of the computer compiling blog posts with a frenzy, albeit in an effort to precipitate the list of things that I should be working on. This is the year that I want to join the GWA, and start designing greeting cards, and creating video segments for the blog... and....and...and!

I thoroughly enjoy your writing and look forward to many more inspired moments..... sometimes you just need to say screw it all and fall into a momentary stupor! At least that's the excuse I'm sticking to! Happy New Year!

Hello? Is that Matt? This is Vermont calling.....We just wanted to let you know we've got a farm here just for you! Come up and make your cheese, we need more cheese makers!! Hope to see you soon in these lovely and green (now white) mountains.

Hi Matt,

I have been a lurker (follower) on your blog for a while now.
I have always been fascinated at all that you do and all that you share. I am sure I have barely been exposed to a 10th of it all.

But this morning, as I am in the same boat as you are, I find myself amused at your post and completely in tune with everything you said.

I am a magazine editor and rarey take time off. And last week I did exactly what you did. Seed catalogs, cooking, crochet in front of a tv with movies playing that i mindlessly watched.

So you have inspired me to write my own list....and have made me feel like my own 'zoning out' last week was worth it. (besides I planted and played in the dirt like mad and that renewed my soul)

Take care!
Pam
ps. happy new year!
