Description
Lilacs don't like coming indoors but after a heavy rain they became so heavy I thought I'd lose the bush to the driveway. So here they are before they wilt, looking and smelling heavenly in an antique etched glass condiment bottle which once had a stopper. Sitting in a puddle of sun.

fyi, Aussies: yes, they grow here, are temperamental......."Lilacs are clearly better for the Adelaide Hills than the Plains – if apples grow well, lilacs probably will too"
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Nice to know that you have them....along with so many flowers and plants special to Australia.

Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
You would remember...the smell is so intense....next time you go to look at the bath soap bars, there will surely be a lilac....! They may not have been introduced to Australia...?
