There is a golf course behind our house that we drive through in order to get home. At the main entrance, the road has about 20 very large lilac bushes on each side. They are at least 20 feet tall. For only about two weeks each year, the bushes bloom and it smells so wonderful. I always bring home a vase full so that we can enjoy that wonderful smell. Eli likes to get his nose right into them!

I love lilacs, too! Ours are already all bloomed out...we have Iris and Azaelas blooming like crazy all around these parts (but not in my yard unfortunately).
Lilacs are my 2nd favorite (roses first). The smell is glorious. They grow really well up here in Tahoe.
PS. I'm mailing your little rose dress that you won on auction out tomorrow.

They smell so wonderful. I should see if they grow well in Washington.
Lilacs are one of my ALL TIME favorite smells, and my favorite flower! I wish mine would bloom soon!!
Lucky you!

We have lilac bushes in our yard that are just starting to bloom. I love them as well as the lily of the valley. I like to get my nose right into them like Eli.
Oh I can smell them from here! Beautiful! Happy Spring!
I love lilacs, but they hate me.....:-)
Oh that Eli is a heart-stealer! He does just like I do. I can't get enough of that sweet smell. My #1 favorite smell in the world!
But honeysuckle is coming on now and it lasts much longer--my #2 favorite smell!
