Being the evil little sister I would pick lilacs in the neighbor's yard and bring them home to my mother. I knew exactly what I was doing. I'm pretty sure my sister has forgiven me by now. We don't have lilacs here. I guess it's too hot for them.Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068151073417372746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-26589740761812840452016-05-23T12:33:43.221-07:002016-05-23T12:33:43.221-07:00Lilacs certainly do have a "heavenly scent&qu...Lilacs certainly do have a "heavenly scent", don't they? I have 4 varieties that grow in my yard and they are so fragrant, especially when the breezes blow. <br /><br />There are 4 bouquets in the house now, but as you said, they don't last very long as a cut flower. I did read that there was a later blooming variety. That may be something to look into.<br /><br />Enjoy these beautiful and fragrant lilac days of May!mariannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-67889506166986627922016-05-23T12:17:01.642-07:002016-05-23T12:17:01.642-07:00I love lilacs and have a couple of small bushes.

When I was young I think I found them a little overpowering, but now they remind me of home. (There's probably a life lesson in that!)<br /><br />I do not know the flower's background, but you've made me curious...<br /><br />:)Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08702620069148109246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-28706679504693426282016-05-23T08:59:35.101-07:002016-05-23T08:59:35.101-07:00Definitely no lilacs here.
