Of all of my forced branches this season, this display of ceris Forest Pansy branches is the highlight. About three weeks ago, I cut about eight branches three to four feet in length. The first week, little appeared to be happening. The second week, the buds really began to swell. And this week, I was rewarded with this beautiful display. For a close-up of the flowers, click here.

Very pretty. I love having a little bit of spring in the house.
They are truly gorgeous ! Nothing like these types of forced branches to literally bring Spring indoors to enjoy : )
