Masoud, ya can't show such lovely flowers without giving us the plant's name. I want one! The buds look a bit like those on my hoya, but those fiber optic glories are spectacular.

Paperwhites flourish in the kitchen window

Smart Red, I'm pretty sure Masoud's beautiful pink flower is a Powderpuff. I did not know you could grow them in a greenhouse... and now I'm even more sure I need a greenhouse!
Pretty paperwhites too! ... Really makes me think Spring!

Smart Red,
Ok, I'll be better! Lavender 2 is right. Red dwarf powder puff - Calliandra haematocephala. It came from Emerald Goddess Gardens - a wonderful nursery in Wauchula, FL. Tel 863-773-4015. It costs about $10 + reasonable shipping!
Lavender 2, the dwarf variety does well in a pot in a greenhouse.

Smart Red,
Love the the contrast, short-lived springy paperwhites and old wintery bare trees in the background.

We have a wild flower that grows on the road sides that looks like that, I'll have to see if I can find a pic of it.
