Scratch and Sniff


Actually, computers don't yet work like that. When they do, though, this picture will be a lot cooler because whatever this thing growing in the garden-area is, smells great.

These are hyacinths.

Remember Poe's poem "To Helen"?

Helen, thy beauty is to me
Like those Nicean barks of yore,
That gently, o'er a perfum'd sea,
The weary way-worn wanderer bore
To his own native shore.
On desperate seas long wont to roam,
Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face..." etc.
Know you'll make the connection.
