Determined to have lilacs

When we got back from Jen's with the days being warm and night
cold I decided four years with no lilacs surviving was enough....so I
was forced to fool mother nature. With Ron's willingness to help we
broke out the Christmas lights strung them around the bush and found
the largest tarp we owned and each night we would plug in the lights
and cover what we could. Did it work?
Yes, it did Just before I left for sisters weekend I took this picture.
We couldn't save them all but I was able to save enough to pick a
bunch and fill the house with that wonderful lilac scent...
The underneath had the best flowers... So yes to Ron who didn't
quite agree that the lilacs were more important than the fruit trees.
But humored me anyway.
Yippy Skippy I can do the happy lilac dance!!!
No I didn't include any dance pics sorry .
