It's drizzling here all grey and wet.
Love all the pretty pictures!
Look at this ...the picture does not do it justice the lilac colour is beautiful soft but intense. This is a label less butterfly bush( label gone missing while I was away) that I grew from one of cestrums cuttings, it's over 6ft tall and about to riot into bloom. I bent over to look at the pretty lilac colour and found a lovely soft fragrance even in the rain. I know why they call these "Summer Lilacs" now mmmm :-) and the lush leaves are pretty velvet too.
