Lilacs

A sure sign of spring in the northeast.  We have several varieties blooming in shades of purple and pink, and at slightly different times.

The "old ladies" - these were here when we bought the property

These were relocated to the front garden in 2009
"Ludwig Spaeth" -- deep purple blossoms, usually opens in early June but our unseasonably warm temps have caused an early bloom
