My lilacs are blooming like crazy.
It’s been chilly and breezy, but they’re out there being as beautiful. As they do.
I went out to cut some.
Even though we’ve been in construction chaos, I wanted to see and smell them in the house.
It was absolutely worth it.
Dang, I wish y’all could smell this!

Luckily, we have a Lilac also and the scent is DREAMY. We planted it a few years ago and this is the first year I’ve seen it bloom out like this. Fantastic. Wish I had a few more. My true love is Gardenias, though, but we have a heck of a time trying to keep them alive. Last year we planted maybe 8 of them and only one made it. I’m starting to think something is off with the soil that Gardenias need.
Gardenias are notoriously finicky. I’m hopeful you’ll figure it out and enjoy that scent all summer long!
Lilacs have a wonderful perfume. ❤
