Spring Smells So Good

Everyday there is a little spring gift waiting for you in sight and smell. Today, the gift would be Lilacs and Daphnes. Can you smell the beauty?

Firey autumn can also be good! The daphne has just about been picked clean by the slugs ;( My young lilac died, these are from my neighbor but I can still love and adore them.

I'm loving all the surprises in my garden this year, the moments of "oh! I forgot I planted that!" I also had volunteer marigolds and poppies grow in the crack between the concrete pavers by the pool, and I let them, and now they're blooming. Good stuff!
