They are a pest if one is trying to grow a kitchen garden with food plants in those categories.Barbee'https://www.blogger.com/profile/11316077390373348067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-26314741532052953922010-04-10T15:32:36.099-07:002010-04-10T15:32:36.099-07:00Louise: It must be gorgeous in a town with 500 var...Louise: It must be gorgeous in a town with 500 varieties! I don't remember any lilacs in Princeton when I lived there. The dogwoods stand out in my mind when I think back on spring in NJ.<br /><br />Barbee: Do you think they are the same white butterflies where you are? I need to find out more about them but the way you describe them make them sound just like mine. <br /><br />Thanks both of you for your nice comments, I appreciate them so much.Ingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924736131382149056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-55889004684119741892010-04-10T13:46:35.990-07:002010-04-10T13:46:35.990-07:00I Love! lilacs.

I like those little flowers growing close on the ground. Enjoyed this post very much.Barbee'https://www.blogger.com/profile/11316077390373348067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-8570635432190354282010-04-09T17:36:51.191-07:002010-04-09T17:36:51.191-07:00Here's hoping that your lilacs and daffys flow...Here's hoping that your lilacs and daffys flower this year. Nearby Rochester is known for its lilacs, also. Highland Park has over 500 varieties, and holds a huge Lilac Festival every year. This year, because of the warm weather we had, everything is ahead of schedule.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692541935507155362noreply@blogger.com
