What very early is this year is the lilac, I love lilac, it is usually around the middle of May and there are so many flowers already fully open.

Enfys they are beautiful you are so lucky I bet the aroma into your house is amazing,I have spent the last 3 days planting my hanging baskets and tubs GS1 ordered 10/12 trays of bedding plants for me to fill them with some trailing plants for the baskets so I have done 8 tubs and 3 baskets the trays where delivered from the local market garden he dropped me off such a nice selection I am very pleased with them,this is the first year I have done them as John was always the boss of the plants but I'm sure he would be pleased with them.

I noticed when we took Eva to the paddock today that wisteria seems to have come into flower everywhere. I think it's a bit early this year, like the lilac.

Some years ago I was photographing a Spring wedding at the Registry Office in Bridport, Dorset. I'd done a recce a couple of weeks previously to find places to take photos, but all my planning went out of the window when after the ceremony we went round to the gardens at the back. It's an old building with huge bay windows on each end - and one of them was smothered in the most amazing wisteria - what a gift of a backdrop for the B&G photos! It had looked totally dead a couple of weeks previously! The only trouble was there was a steep grassy slope immediately outside and I had to try and balance on this slope while taking the photos.

Fun I imagine Daisy! But what a perfect natural backdrop.

I saw on our village FB page that the 2 glorious wisteria in the centre of the village are out . We must walk down and look at them.

Beautiful wisteria.I’d love to have some

Btw my son sent me a picture of the B and Q car park he can see from his flat and the cars were queueing round the block.

I have wisteria hanging over the garden fence from next door. Lucky me!

My DD and Sil have a wisteria, it isn't out yet. There is a special way to prune them to get lots of flowers.

[Lizzie48]

New photo's of our town hall, I have just read that the wisteria will be removed according to plans! What a shame.

[Gemini]

Oh no!! What a shame, it is so beautiful.

[Daisy]

Lizzie, what a pity to take out that gorgeous wisteria!

This is just a part of our neighbour's one, and our lilac just coming out, taken a few days ago.

Our lilac is beautiful too Daisy, I have some in a vase in the living room.
