February 28, 2013 -- flowers from the alley behind the bank

This is why I love windowsill arranging: it made me jump out of the car as I was headed to make a deposit at the bank and pick these little flowers in the alley behind the drive-in teller's window. Talk about your promise of spring! I think this is star-of-Bethlehem; it's the Ornithogalum that smells like garlic, a terrible, awful, very bad weed, but a thrill to see on a cold February day.
