RE: Lilacs after the rain...these are some of the most fragrant flowers and there are ...

in #appics6 years ago

My Grandma used to have one in her garden... and lots of lilly-of-the-valley.
Back then you could buy all sorts of garden flowers at the market, but these days most florists sell imported flowers, like roses which don't smell of roses anymore...

Sort:  

It's sad that people don't plant as much as they used to. The house we last lived in was almost 100 years old and had raspberries, lilacs, grapes, and a lot of other perennials. The grapes were a smaller variety (like muscadine) that I've never tasted anywhere else, they were delicious. Where are the imported flowers from in your region?
