One of my nieces got married on May 3 and I remember her wedding anniversary because she had Lilacs in her wedding bouquets. Ours are starting to fade . . . it's a shame they don't last just a bit longer.

You must fine a yard with some . . . the way you love taking beautiful photos of flowers, I would say that you need to make this one of your goals for next Spring. You are much warmer than us, so yours have probably already bloomed and faded. They have about a two to three week season of blooming. It's a small goal, but as you will find, well worth it :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-2896843614749298722016-04-25T07:06:24.587-07:002016-04-25T07:06:24.587-07:00I have some Knock Out Roses in bloom right now . ...I have some Knock Out Roses in bloom right now . . . they are lovely and bloom from spring until frost, but this hybrid variety has no scent . . . what a shame, right? From everything that I have been reading on gardening, it's the old fashioned Heirloom Roses that have the most scent. I have a few Blaze Climbers that I planted the first year we moved here. This will be their third summer and they should do well this year . . . I am hoping that they will smell wonderful and give that old fashioned beauty of roses climbing along my fence line :) Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-21170296138940814402016-04-25T06:59:25.443-07:002016-04-25T06:59:25.443-07:00Good Morning Lorrie, thanks for dropping by.

Up until this point I have always purchased plants, except for the seeds that you sow in the ground after frost. The garden this summer will be my third garden . . . each year they get bigger and bigger.
