There is nothing in the spring like lilacs - ours are blooming - all over town - and the scent is heavenly.
There are so many colors of lilacs - and all are sweet smelling
Sparkling White
Softest, palest lavender - almost with a blue tint
Mounds of pale lilac
Just opening
In full bloom - medium lilac
Can yo have a medium two? Between medium and dark. There are so many colors
Almost every yard has at least one bush - maybe two or three
And dark - next to a Pink Dogwood
The darkest of purples
My friend's lilac - sweet scented and bi-colored
A bouquet of bi-colored lilacs

What a glorius set of photos!
Love Lilacs. You must have heavenly scent in your house now?
Thank you for joining Floral Love!
Gorgeous! I love lilacs. I don't remember seeing a bicoloured lilac before.
Oh, these are just exquisite. I wish we could grow them here, but they don't like Florida. Glad they like your neck of the woods so you can enjoy them. I'll just have to enjoy them through your photos! :-)
I'm not sure why we don't see much of these here in our neck of the woods, maybe it's too warm. I'll have to look into it. It must smell absolutely heavenly where you live!
Whoa, I never saw one with two colors before! We had a bush once that did poorly and only bloomed once in ten years. When it left, I put in a crape myrtle that blooms like crazy and can be trimmed back to a stump every year. Still, it would never beat those lolacs for smell!
Lilacs remind me of my Grandmother's house. She had a big grove of them that we played under when we were little. I love all the different colors you have shown us. The dark purple are beautiful and those bi-colored are amazing! What a beautiful bouquet! xo
Lilacs are so lovely. Unfortunately, I miss our lilac's bloom time almost every year as I'm away working. My only wish is that they bloomed for just a bit longer than they do!
Thanks so much for joining in this week!
