In Sweden you say that the most beautiful period of the year is the season between "hägg & syrén", that is between Prunus Padus, in the picture, a lovely bush with white flowers.
And then the even more lovely Syrén, as Syringa Vulgaris or simply Lilacs, with their wounderful perfume.
They are not ready yet, but you get the picture...
I live in Sweden and write for a living, as a journalist and writer. In this blog I talk about my mother Gunvor's work as an artist, my travel around the world and a lot more.

The perfume of lilacs
I am not 100% shue that you call these lovely flowers Lilacs or not, but the latin name is Syringa Vulgaris, a rather ugly name for sutch lovely plants.
These are growing outside my home, and their perfume is really wounderful. In Sweden we call them Syren.
Here you have another bush with white ones, just as beautiful.

In my window
Here is to all of you! A vase full of perfumed Lilac's, or Syringa Vulgaris as it is called in latin.
Love those - take them inside as soon as I can. The vase is old and come from my family.
We call the flower's Syren.
