One week before Thanksgiving and the lilac is still blooming [View all]

Last edited Wed Nov 20, 2024, 11:06 PM - Edit history (1)

More blooms have emerged since I posted the lilac photo on November 11. This is the third time the bush has bloomed this year. My climbing clematis has also started budding again. The high temp today was 64F and there's a thunderstorm passing over the house while I'm typing this post. Strange days, indeed.
