They made it! The lilacs! In time for Memorial Day! It was looking doubtful there, what with all the cold weather we've had, but they're beginning to open nicely now. They're not as full as some years, but at least they're there. Enjoy! (Wish I could post some of their fragrance, too!)
The irises aren't blooming yet. They're going to be VERY late. They don't even have buds yet. Update: As of Memorial Day morning, they DO now have buds! They popped out fast since I last looked on Saturday!
I have a new purple this year, though. I bought a couple of these plants on Friday. They're a type of osteospermum called "Lavender Bliss". Cool, huh?
Hope you're all having a great weekend. The weather has been stupendous here! Come back tomorrow and see my favorite little bunny in action! ;)

OK one not so nice thing about FL is lack of lilacs. 😵 I love that scent! That Lavender Bliss is gorgeous. Happy weekend indeed!
Well, now... how did you get that little face in your comment?!
That last photo is beautiful! Sometime I should try to make one out of paper or felt. You can see it, right? You could roll the petals in the middle and glue that overlapped section?
Yep, I can see it. Go for it... and be sure to show us! Too bad you're not blogging any more... it'd be a fun tutorial. ;)
That last flower! Gorgeous! Like postcard gorgeous! Print it out and make it a postcard, GG!
Okay... maybe I'll send it to you. ;)
I love the osteospermum. That design would make a beautiful fabric print for Jess' collection. Wouldn't that make a beatuiful comforter and valance print!
Indeed!
