Flutter by

Flutter by by BayRoadPhoto/Laura.
My kitchen table is quickly becoming my favorite spot in the house and the really cool thing is I planned it that way. Out the front window I've hung my hummingbird feeder so I can see the little guys coming and going. To the right is another window that years ago I planted a french lilac bush directly beneath. The lilac is finally large enough to be seen from that window now. The one thing I didn't openly plan was all the butterfly's it was going to attract. What an awesome way to while away a little bit of time, with a nice cup of coffee, hummingbirds, lilacs and butterflies... It's like something straight out of a freakin' Disney movie!

Lovely, Laura. Almost as good as the view from my "office" doorway, with the added benefit of never having to leave the house.

Gorgeous color -- and lilacs -- I'm so envious. We can't grow them on the California coast.

No lilacs in Cali? I had no idea... They are one of my favorite flowers. I even chose this particular variety because it blooms later, that way I have the regular lilacs first and then when those fade this shrub goes into action and keeps the yard alive with the butterflies and that oh so sweet smell!

They may be able to grow them up toward the Sierra, but most of California doesn't get cold enough in the winter for them, esp. on the coast, where I am. I grew up in Minnesota and one whole side of our yard was bordered with huge lilac bushes . . . sigh . . .
