Syringa vulgaris

The lilacs spill onto the scene, dressed head to toe in provocative aromas. Purples, pinks, whites—each bundle of flowers is a flag planted in the name of spring perfumes.

Happy Presidents’ Day from one of my favorite lilacs, ‘President Lincoln’! It’s not blooming yet, of course (expect to see and smell these lovelies in mid-April), but when it does I’ll be sure to shout about it. We’re open to the public today and kicking off our week-long Culinary Kids Food Festival, so don’t be shy!
