Hello Everyone,
This weekend I had the opportunity to take a walk around my yard and inspect some of my gardens. Right now one of my most favorite plants is in bloom, the lilacs!! I love them for several reasons, they are colorful, fragrant and just plain beautiful. Here is a site that I found that sells 90 different cultivars!! Check it out here. Amazing, who knew there where that many?
I have 3 different varieties, which I love and will show in the photos below.
These two photos are of the most common lilac that I see. The light lavender color
It looks a little lighter here because it is faded by the sun. This one sits on the south side of the house.
This one is a darker variety. Very rich deep purple, almost the color of plums or eggplant. Hmmm... I must be hungry!
This one is a white variety. It also sits on the south side of the house. One thing I love about my lilacs is they have tons of blooms. I just wish they would last for longer.
As I was taking the photos, I had a little helper keeping his eye on me. I think Pavi was wondering why he couldn't come out and help me. So in lieu of him coming to help me, I took some handsome photos of him.
Some of you might remember when we adopted him last year and he was just a kitten. Well, he is now 1 year old. His alleged birthday was April 15. He is now a full grown cat with the spirit of a kitty. Handsome boy!
