Oh. My. Gosh!! GREAT news!!! You know my lilac bush that hasn’t bloomed in like 12 years??? Guess what???

It bloomed this year for the first time ever!!!!

Isn’t it just gorgeous? I’m so in love with the lilac bush! I wandered around it taking photos from every angle!!!

The poor bush suffered from a tree chopping down incident in its youth…
Yes, I was not amused. We moved it…well, what was left of it after the tree fell on it…but it never bloomed.

2011 lilac waiting game
2010 wondering if the lilac bush will bloom–right next to SuperGuy’s 67 cent lilac bush that bloomed–which, btw, has NOT bloomed this year…
2009 will it bloom??
Ah, finally a happy ending for the lilac bush saga!! Long live the lilac bush!

Congratulations!
If you’re in Columbia in the next few weeks, stop by mom and dad’s house. They have a lilac hedge with at least 12 different kinds of lilacs. The beauty of it is overwhelming…
Annie! I saw all their lilacs last year! So very gorgeous! I’d love a big lilac hedge like that!
Lilac hedge would be beautiful (if it blooms;))
Beautiful pictures, Kasey!
Someday I’ll have one here on the farm, also. Love them!
OMG. Just saw this post, Kacey. Cannot believe it’s blooming. Happy days are here again!!
I’m just so happy to see you’ve posted again. Welcome back!
