Posted - Apr 20 2015 : 12:35:03 PM Thanks for sharing the beautiful photo; lilacs are some of my favorites. I had to laugh, though, when I read "last cutting" as you can see how far along our lilac shrubs are here in far west central Wisconsin:) Do they look like they're shivering? Well, I was too! lol Besides enjoying their fragrance, hand-dyeing with lilac twigs is fun. I actually posted a scarf for sale in the Marketplace section if you want to see the neat, subtle color you get. ![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/04/DSCN0658.jpg?v 59384692)
Blessings to you on your life's journey. |

Posted - Apr 19 2015 : 03:56:32 AM Hi Grace. I love the name Grace by the way. Your lilacs are beautiful! Mine are just starting to leaf out. It's a huge relief to see them thriving after the rough winter we had!
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world Amy www.danaherandcloud.com
