Hyacinths, daffs, and tulips. Alas, they haven't gotten enough chill yet to merit forcing them. I usually start bringing some in now, but I'm going to wait another 3-4 weeks, after we've had some true winter weather.

Nothing beats having spring bulbs in the house during the winter. Especially hyacinths!
