Purple Lilac

Purple Lilacs

Purple Lilac (Syringa sp.)
Location: Aspen, Colorado, USA

Mid-June is lilac season in Aspen, Colorado.  Lilac bushes are in bloom everywhere in the town - in gardens, in front of homes and shops, in public parks.  They are lovely to look at, and very fragrant, too.

How beautiful. I also have a lilac tree and love the time of year when the fragrant blooms are out.

We are in New England, and by the end of May ours have already passed by. I love to have the smell of them coming in through the open windows!
