"Let's see if Bubbles has his Flower Book with him to look them up" said Elizabeth. When they asked Bubbles, he had to run back into the house to get his book which he very quickly found and brought outside with him.

"I'm looking up tall stemmed, scented blue flowers that look like little stars," he explained as he leafed through his book. "I think maybe it's these," he finally suggested, and he showed them a picture which seemed to match their flowers.

"I think you're right," said Lizzie. "What are they called?"

"They are hyacinths," replied Bubbles, saying the name rather slowly as it seemed quite a difficult word to pronounce for little bears. "It says here that they grow from bulbs under the ground and appear in March and April, and that they have a very strong scent."
