Lilac Land

So I have a thing for lilacs, and obviously the previous owner of our lot did too. The scent is positively intoxicating and the flowers are simply divine. Too bad they don´t last in a vase very long. Sigh. Unfortunately the lilacs are fading, but the roses have lots of buds. This picture below is the beginning of my rose garden which isn´t quite finished. I´ll take pictures again when it´s a little further along. So here are some of the lilacs behind our house (taken from the bathroom window).


And more lilacs....I also have lots of yellow iris which are about to bloom and a pretty hot pink/red peony with lots of buds. I can´t wait for my peonies to open. I think I like them even better than my lilacs...but then again, I love all my flowers.

I can't wait to see your roses. I LOVE lilacs. Can you come and work on our garden? I love flowers but have the opposite of green-fingers. I can't even keep a basil plant alive.

The lilacs look beautiful! I love that spring finally decided to stay!
