  *Brighten Up With Paperwhites*

With a few bulbs, some pebbles and a pot, sweet-smelling blossoms are just
weeks away.

"Whether you have a green thumb or don't know a spade from a trowel,
paperwhites are pretty much guaranteed to bloom," says Katherine Brooks, a
Virginia-based gardener and landscape designer. "And since they're so easy
to plant and care for, paperwhites are a terrific project for children who
have such fun checking on their daily progress. Plus, it teaches kids about
patience," says Brooks, the mother of two.

Paperwhites' fragrant, snowy-white blossoms are especially welcome during
the short days of January and February, when the glitter and glow of the
holidays are long gone. "Imagine waking up to the sweet smell of
paperwhites," says Brooks. "What awonderful way to begin a dark winter
morning!" For that reason, Brooks always keeps a pot of paperwhites in her
bedroom, in addition to the ones in her entrance hall and kitchen.
