The past few winters, I've kept a miniature rose inside, under the lights just to have some flowers. In the spring, I plant them out in the garden.

They do alright in my southern patio doors, with grow lights. I get to see some flowers, then plant them outside in the spring.

I always enjoy those Brassovola hybrids - is this one fragrant?

Here’s a little white quince cutting that’s blooming right now

Lovely white flower! Very appropriate to complement the winter snow
Yes, this orchid is fragrant. However the scent is so very distinctive and soft. You need to move the inflorescence near to your nose to smell the aroma. Starts emitting its smell in the evening and during night.

Very nice for this time of year. Is that a dwarf crape myrtle, a cultivar or plain pieces, if I may ask? Finally found some young plants in a garden centre for good €.
