The time of idleness is over
The silence of winter is OVER!!!
The work has increased twenty-fold from winter
But…it is never a burden!
From my world to your heart,
Linda

Beautiful header!! Also love the little violets! They would grow wild in our yard when I was a little girl. Alfalfa looks great, too! Thanks for sharing all your pretties!
Blessings!

Mom loved lilacs and they always remind me of her. She would cut them and put them in every room.

That lilac is rad! They grow here too, but not many of us know about it. We grow the French hybrids instead, but I do not think that they are as pretty.

These were here long, long ago…planted in 1900. All but one and I planted it in 1974. I love them.

Those are the best ones. I started growing the French hybrids in about 1995, not because I like them, but because it was what the nurseries sold. I can’t remember how often I was told that the old fashioned straight species needed more chill to bloom well here. I remember it blooming in Malibu (on the north coast of Santa Monica Bay, west of Los Angeles), where there is even less chill! French hybrids certainly provide more color, but none are as excellent as the originals. (Who really wants a dark purple lilac anyway? They are supposed to be ‘lilac’ colored!)
