I usually dont do much in the way of flowers but I had taken this picture last Spring so I figured I would do a Foofy Friday thing. These are actually called "My Favorite" These are the largest lilac blooms and smell just incredible. Enjoy!

Yes, it looks like a large lilac, and I adore it. I can almost smell it. Gorgeous shot, Paul.

Oh how good it will be when these beauties will bloom again. They have excellent scent. These large ones look wonderful in a big mass. Great you shared it. Have a nice weekend.

My wife's favorite amongst the flower types Paul. She always has a bouquet of them on the kitchen table when they are blooming. They do have a terrific smell.
An excellent post.

What a profusion of blooms. I see we were on the same wavelength. I love lilacs. I think these are 'french' lilacs and must smell divine. Soon....

Lilacs are my favorites also! I can almost smell them. I like the combination of the blue, green and purple.
