Reminds me of childhood, lilac bushes in a London garden! Bet it smells beautiful, too, BB.

Aye Gee bit of a white flower freak .. we have a shady garden and anything white seems to lift it esp in the evenings and yes the fragrance is lovely ..poor thing was neglected and strangled by ivy has really bounced back since clearing it .

Lovely BB - I must get a lilac - I say this about everything though - I'll say the same when the Laburnham's are flowering

I love the smell of lilac...can't grow any traditionals here...I do believe there are some varieties I can grow but I'm swamped under with too many plants already...this is great, BB

I've just seen a dwarf white lilac at a nursery we visited over the weeked. Only £5 something, I thought that was reasonable? Didn't buy it so might have to make a return visit :)

Thats the beauty of this site Skippy being able to share plants we cant grow am sure you have many in Arizona that would not appreciate our position on the North coast of England ..you may even have one or two Spritz cant grow !

Laburnums are lovely Dawn a bit of a worry if you have small children about but then I never got into the habit of nibbling trees as a child ...

Thanks Flower .. yes lovely to see the sun but todays a bank holiday here so dull and overcast of course..sun out tomorrow as back to work I expect.

Aye fragrance is lovely esp in the evenings when the suns out ...dream on.

Yes that does sound reasonable Gee hope its got some nice fat buds on .

Us too Dawn blowing a gale glad I got the pic when I did as much more of this will mean no blooms left..

I thought to myself earlier, hope your lilac hasnt been knocked about. Like when the flowering cherries are in flower - its always windy and gone in a day or two :(

Knocked about but still surviving Dawn ! Like us all........... : )

I ll take a row of cuttings Jacque - also possible to layer them but this can take a year but then they do end up as large plantable specimens.
