This was shared by a member here who did not care for its color. I will reserve judgment on this as it is such an early bloomer. Lest We Forget (G. Sutton 2007)
Then, on the same day, TB Busy Being Blue (Denney/McWhirter 1989)Thumb of 2022-05-10/evelyninthegarden/026207Last year it bloomed on May 15th, but we did have some very warm days and then back to cool and cold again. In that time period, I should have taken a picture of my lilac, as it fried in the heat. Already the weevils are busy eating the flowers and pollen. Anyone know of a natural solution? I squish them when I see them, but one already messed up this flower. I guess the heat brought out the bugs, too.
