We had a bumper year for lilacs here in MN, too. I wonder if it was all the snow? Even if it wasn’t I don’t think they would ever have smelled as good as they smelled after having snow from Oct – Nov?? through May!! Ours bloomed late, but bloom they did!
MUCH nicer than where I work….I can smell them from here..thanks for sharing.
you should sell your place and come up here – again!!!
I was driving through Elberta on M-22 with windows open and the lilac fragrance was heavenly!!
Yes, it really is everywhere

Indeed, it seems that the lilacs love harsh winters. Ours were right on time late May. They are still blooming and wafting 🙂
