Lilacs! Glorious Lilacs!
Spring is totally here. Wanna know how I know?
They had lilac bundles available at a nearby florist yesterday. So I picked up some for my home...
They are sitting in a William Yeoward "Louise" vase on my desk. And they smell divine!
And if they're fragrant and available at the florist, that means that the Arnold Arboretum's bloom is kicking into gear. And sure enough, when I went to their website, I saw that Lilac Sunday is this weekend.
I've been to the Arnold Arboretum only once... About five years ago. And it was just a few days after Lilac Sunday. And the place smelled amazing. There were so many different varieties of lilacs!!! Soft blue ones! Lavender ones! White ones! Pink-ish ones!
I am not going to go on Sunday, but I will venture over there sometime early next week. Might as well, you know? Since I have the time during the week. :)
You should check them out too... But hurry! They won't be in bloom for long! Entrance on the grounds is free! Just don't pick the lilacs!
