Lilacs and Magnolias

Some of our sweetest smelling plants and trees are in bloom this week- pink magnolia, star magnolia, pear tree,  hyacinth, wild hyacinth, grape hyacinth, and best of all, the lilac shrub!

 Love the foliage combo of the red maple, pink magnolia, and the Chinese Maple beyond

But of all the sweet smelling blooms, I am really loving the Viburnam collection of our neighbors.  It has such a sweet delicious smell which reminds me of white tic tacs. Yum.
