Re: Lilac time

We used to have 2 lilac trees in the garden when I was growing up, I always liked them.... but alas, no room in my garden for one.

This Shrub is 30 years old Eliza, and it is huge even with pruning. I have two of them and a small pink one as well
the perfume is gorgeous.

Thank you Silver Tabby

When they flower I am reminded of the Song.' Liac Time' sung by Ellke Brooks.
