LILACS


When lilacs last in my dooryard bloomed it was over five years ago at our house in upstate New York.  I've not seen any since we moved to South Carolina. They don't care for these warmer climes. Today I found big bunches of them at Trader Joe's and I am in heaven. I got white and purple ones, and they are sending the most wonderful fragrance throughout the house. My spring is complete.  Thanks to Google for the picture above - the one below is mine, taken at Hancock Shaker Village, which was about eight miles from where we lived.
