So I painted over it and grabbed some wooden letters from the craft store instead..
Nor should you, because I speak the truth!.I’ve been waiting to enjoy lilacs from this giant tree for the last 2 years.
Last year we had a weird early hot spell and then a late frost and it pretty much killed the season for flowering trees.I was hopeful, but no flowers came all year..This year more than made up for it though.
Being a first-time lilac tree owner, I’ve discovered that I had every right to be excited about this tree and that lilacs are awesome.. Lilacs give so much and ask for so little in return.As long as they get established, they pretty much keep to themselves and don’t really need anything from you..
When lilacs are in bloom, your whole property smells like some remote corner of heaven and you almost have to say “Aaahhhhh!” every time you step out of your car.. It’s nearly impossible to get in a fight with anyone in your family when your house smells like lilacs.
It’s just a fact.. Lilacs aren’t fancy or snooty.I thought I’d give you a little follow up..
So, this was my second time ever at this particular store and once again, I had problems holding on to all the awesome things I found for dirt cheap.That’s definitely helping me to be a little less freaked out!
Cheap treasures!.New rule for me: Never get a cart!
