I love the lilacs, too! I just realized why I was not seeing this year's thread. I need to reply. D'Oh! Everything is looking good despite the snow (slow) start. Thumbs up

May your garden, family, home, and yourself be extremely blessed this year!

I understand they are wonderful. I'll have to be content with my gardenias and tea olives. Later on in the summer the ginger lilies start blooming, sniffff!

Your garden space looks great! I tip my hat to you. I will have to say I have never seen a yellow peony. Looks pretty!

Many blessings for your success!

Thank you Sharon!

I was doing my usual after work garden walk today. Saw this huge clump of Flavia. An OT lily. It never came up last year. Now this year it's already at 43 inches. Towering over everything else right now. Everything either is 18 inches high at best

That azalea is very unique and is a nice shade of yellow. I have never seen a yellow one before. Exactly the same with the yellow peony. Very nice job! Thumbs up

I like your clematis, too! Hurray! Could I inquire as to its name?

Everybody likes a snack! Green Grin!

Many blessings for a wonderful weekend!

It's a good thing I don't know what peonies or lilacs smell like because I would have to have them then! Drooling

Lookin' good Dave. My lilies are starting to show lots of buds, especially the Asiatics.
Awesome is several feet tall, no buds yet.
