Wonderblue, a French hybrid cultivar, is also known as Little Boy Blue Lilac. Its scent was non-existent Saturday when I shot this, probably due to the fluctuating weather here in Salt Lake.
Lilac’s are my favorite……spring is not complete without their scent surrounding you…….Great image rona……you’ve captured the essence of their beauty in this picture…..*smiles*

Spring creeps northward but here above the 45th parallel, the lilacs are still sleeping.

I can smell the lilacs! Most of my summer memories are filled with a background scent of lilacs (and cut grass, strawberries, and blueberries).
