| I can't resist sharing Lilac Festival pics with you every year. |
 |
| The annual Lilac Festival in Woodland WA is held on the grounds of the Hulda KIager estate. She was a famous horticulturist who created many lilac hybrids. This is the path you take when you first enter through the gate. |
 |
| Straight ahead is her home which has been kept in period style. |
 |
| There are so many varieties and colors of lilacs on the grounds. Here is just one example. |
 |
| This wisteria draped arbor was the site of my son's wedding 20 years ago. |
 |
| Everything in the gift shop is lilac themed or purple, including this sweet china set. I hope you enjoyed the tour. We are having a warm spell this week. The sun is SOOOO welcome around here. I hope you are all safe from the tornados and enjoying spring. Thanks for visiting, friends. -Derrith |

There was a large lilac bush outside my bedroom window when I was growing up. I loved the flowers and the fragrant smell. They won't grow where we live now or I would have one.
Thanks for the wonderful pictures. We always had lilacs when we lived in IL. They won't grow in So Cal and I miss them.
Always love the lilac festival. I love to go every year. When we were in Utah last weekend, the lilacs were incredible.
