  1. They must smell wonderful in your house, Paula! I've always wanted a lilac bush. My Mom had one years ago and the smell was just intoxicating.

  7. Jealous! Mine are still in the bud stage. You are just enough south of me. Say a little prayer that mine bloom before I leave.

  13. Lilacs are SO beautiful and I love the smell of them but they don't grow well in South Texas. I guess it's too hot! We have other pretty flowers, but those lilacs are just gorgeous. I just popped in your blog and really am enjoying it. Hope you pop in and see me sometime. Happy Spring Ya'll from Houston, TX

  17. Ah, I'm smiling too, and I can smell them! Paula, these are my favorite flowers! Always have been! I don't have a lilac bush, but I've been trying to start plantings from my neighbors, is that stealing?

    have a good week,
