This is my second year growing lilacs, and they are starting to bloom! I feel like a kid on Christmas morning.
All I want to do is sit under them and breathe deeply.  I go out and visit them multiple times a day. Sometimes I wonder if this is normal.
And then I think: Normal is overrated. The bloom season is short, very short. I’m going to savor it.
They’re beautiful! You have quite the green thumb. I tried growing lilacs in San Jose and they were a flop! My lilacs up here are still covered in snow but the day is coming…..
