(4,524 posts)My first spring here, in 2021, I thought there was something wrong with it. Turns out that some lilacs have little to no fragrance. I have to crush the blossoms to smell them. I love the smell of lilac and was looking forward to walking out my back door and getting a whiff on the breeze. Disappointing, but it is a beautiful bush.

I always wanted to plant one here where I live, but I was definitely one born with a brown thumb. I bring healthy looking plants home, google how to take care of them, and no matter what I do (or don't do), they seem to talk among themselves and say, "okay... time to die!" (LOL)

The irises and day lilys are growing well, but it's too early for them to bud. The climbing clematis is climbing the trellis. Spring is my favorite season.
