I haven't had a lilac for about 40 years and I still miss it every spring.

I remember you took the precaution of covering your lilacs. We had a frost advisory but there was none in my backyard Friday morning.

Thanks and you're welcome!

It went down to 35 but no frost. I’m glad we covered them anyway!

And wonderful reminders of spring. I’ve lived in Florida for the past three years and honestly miss spring in Michigan. Thanks for these.
