Description
This photo was taken of our Korean lilacs, which bloom profusely, after regular lilacs are done. They are smaller in stature than the regular, but are more aromatic, and last later into the season. Tigers are my favorite butterflies, along with monarchs, and I was luck enough for a capture of this beauty, and with the aromatics of the flowers, it was like being in heaven!

Thanks much Meryl, as the combo of the lilacs, one of my fave flowers of spring, and the tiger swallowtail butterfly is one of my fave flying flowers, makes this a true fave of mine.

Thanks much Carolyn and Carol, and yes, we do have many critter attracting plants, some of which are welcomed, such as hummers and butterflies, and then there are the usual beetles, snakes, and rabbits, but they are cool too!

Your garden must be really beautiful. A very lovely shot.

Hopefully this year, after our Annual Art Show and Garden Walk, held each June, I will have a virtual tour for those of our group who would be interested in their own private tour, and will send out to all members who are too far away to attend. Thanks for being so inspirational, Carol, and for sharing your talents and masterfully done art work with us. Much appreciated!
