Lilac & Apple Blossom

So I have been jealous and envious and I know that these are not good things to feel but I am. When driving around I look at peoples yards and just want to bring a shovel and help myself to their beautiful flowers. I would never do this but the lilac trees have been tempting, I point out to Brian every time I see a lilac tree that is full of blooms and think in my head, "those people would not miss a few bunches of blooms would they?" 

I checked in our backyard and we too have a lilac bush and it is blooming! I took my clippers outside and cut some lilac and also some apple blossoms and made this arrangement. I LOVE THE SMELL OF LILAC!

Do you have a 'Miss Kim' too? It blooms later than Chinese or French lilac, and it is a smaller size, a wonderful shrub to add to the border.~~Dee
