March 12th, 2011: Common Lilac 'Krasavitsa Moskvy' (Syringa vulgaris) by Clare_C
I've always loved Lilacs, but where I was living they did not do well. Now I live in Zone 6b and have 2 lilacs. This will be the first year they bloom for me and I am so excited. This is a great picture! It shows off the flowers perfectly.
Thank You!!
I can't wait to smell them, just a few more months!
