"Barbara" finally bloomed!

Cindy was given a lilac bush from her dear friend Cindy Francis when Ruth passed last year.  I posted pictures of it getting planted and we had some late summer buds last year.  Over the winter, the deer really chewed it back and there was less bush this spring  But lilacs are resilient and it bounced back with green leaves and buds.  We thought it would take another year of maturity to bloom but that changed in the last few days.  Here is the bush we call "Barbara"...''


 

 

And here are this year's calibrochoa after surviving high winds and hail...

 

 

And finally a Mother's Day gift from Amy and Steve to Cindy...
