Lilac Friday (show and tell)


These are part of a 50 ft. long lilac hedge on the north side of our home. I told my husband, maybe we can sleep out here for a while! It smells so good here.


They're so pretty!


They're 4 different colors.



I wish they weren't so short lived.





So, I'll have multiple bouquets of them around the house for now!

  1. Beautiful!
    I fell in love with my husband taking walks in the springtime with the fragrance of lilacs wafting in the breeze.

  3. Mmm... I've got a post ready for Mother's day with our lilacs. But I only have 1 small bush - and you have a 50foot hedge - WOW!

    Have a great day!

  7. Gosh I just adore lilacs! Someone was giving away a "bush" on Freecycle and I so wanted to claim it and plant it in my yard, but it turned out that the "bush" was over 4 feet tall and wouldn't fit in my Santa Fe to bring it home.

    Someday......
