ah, i have lilacs


Mini ones at least; there is an element of surprise when you know nothing about plants and buy a house (and yard).  We have this bush that I just thought would be green and leafy.  Then this week I was in our backyard spacing out a bit and smelled lilacs.  A happy smell, but confusing.  I was pumped that we have hydrangeas but lilacs would push me over the edge (the key to life is to get excited about these little things... right?).  Sure enough the bush is a "miniature lilac bush."  I didn't even know lilacs came in different sizes!  Who knew?  They bloom for only two weeks a year, but they're pretty while they're here!
