Jackie Palmer's Lilacs are blooming


Years ago I admired Jackie Palmer's lilac bushes. She would clip some off for me to take home and enjoy. There is nothing as beautiful as the smell of lilacs.
She gave me 3 little starters. My dad was in town at the time and he got them in the ground. They have looked like twigs for at least 3 years. This year they bloomed. To take this picture I laid down on the grass,to get the whole affect. The little bushes only go about up to my waist, but they are quite a few blooms and they smell delicious. I miss Jackie, but am so happy to have a little part of her in my yard.
