Look, I'm a pretty, good-smelly lilac!
That was today. But a few weeks ago, the tulips and daffodils ruled the garden.
So overall, you would have seen this …
But I saw this …
This image is dedicated to the Snagit pro user of the house, my husband.
Every spring, I see the gaps of color and pledge to fix it. Fall comes back around and I forget about those bulbs buried deep in the soil. So I have now logged my reminder here. And THAT reminds me of these bulbs drying out in the basement …
Pretty tulips from aforementioned husband in January. Ignore the cute baby. I dare ya.
I could probably plant those in a prime spot in the front yard right now. I'll get right on that — oh lookie over here, more garden photos!

I do that too survey the garden and not look at what is there sometimes;)
ReplyDeleteYou are making me want lilacs now!
The lilacs are our favorite. I can't wait until they are fully in bloom so we can snip a few to bring inside. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, they smell soooo good. I have the lilac bush that was in our yard in 1961 when we moved to Green Bay from Indiana. Dad was going to junk it in the late 70s but I rescued it and it still makes flowers for me every spring. I think it's happier in my sandy soil than the clay at the old house.
ReplyDeletePretty pictures, Tanya. What baby?
Both Tyler and I grew up with lilacs, too. I just wish they bloomed longer. Ours all live just outside the window of the aforementioned baby. Lucky duck.
