Lilacs - Perfumed Dreams

There is a special place in my heart for lilacs:>). Thank you for coming by!

I need to go look up that book - it sounds lovely! I have a tiny lilac tree that my son gave me last year. I coddled it through the winter and now it is leafing out beautifully - about one foot tall. It began life as a shoot beneath a large tree and they are hard to deal with; I'm so tickled this one survived and is making itself a strong and determined plant:>)

Hanne, you are such a talented artist and your work is a pleasure to see. Thank you for the kind comment and how generous of you to top that with a V/F!

My deep appreciation for you wonderful *'s and comment, Val!!! The *'s remind me of Zazzle - LOL.

It will probably be so tired of me photographing it that it will stop blooming! Apparently they are cranky about being transplanted and survival is questionable but this one did survive:>) I feel so fortunate! Now to nurture it, coddle it, talk to it (singing would be cruel and unusual punishment so I'll just talk).

Thank you, Hon - what a wonderful comment! I'm grateful for the V/F, too:>)

I think lilacs are an almost universal smile-maker:>)

My son gave me a tiny lilac tree last fall - so tiny I didn't dare plant it so I set the pot in the ground, mulched the heck out of it, and it has BUDS!!!!! I'm so ecstatic that it survived:>)
