Photo of Indoor Blooms, Anyone?

Here are some of today's kids in the GH. The jades are all blooming (not the trumpets) and the first of my many hippeastrum has bloomed. The color is not at all this color. It is much more plum (called Lilac Wonder, but it may be a bogus one) not so red/orange. The impatience/begonia planter that bloomed all summer is now starting again after I whacked it back. A single orange geranium has started again too. The freesia that I potted up late has broken the ground and will hopefully bloom in early March. I emptied out in a random pot an old bag of seeds that I collected a couple of years ago from some single hollyhocks and they have all spouted. I was not expecting anything as they have been sitting forgotten in the corner of a sometimes very hot GH. Now what to do? Prick them out and nurse them through the winter and plant a forest of them in the spring? Patti
