- Green grow the lilacs, all sparkling with dew
- I'm lonely, my darling, since parting with you;
- But by our next meeting I'll hope to prove true
- And change the green lilacs to the Red, White and Blue.

- I once had a sweetheart, but now I have none
- She's gone and she's left me, I care not for one
- Since she's gone and left me, contented I'll be,
- For she loves another one better than me.
Green Grow the Lilacs is a folk song of Irish origin that was popular in the United States during the mid-19th century.
2011's Spring "Came and Went" quickly last year!
Are you looking forward to Spring 2012 as you peruse the Garden Catalogs and search the Gardening Websites?
Happy New Year!

Oh yes...those catalogues are a mixed blessing...they do help me to get through winter by thinking of spring...but after looking at catalogs for a while...the garden outside looks decidedly less glamorous ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh yes I'm so looking forward to spring. I've been looking through old garden magazines, catalogs and blogs for inspiration. It won't be too long before spring though.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Oh, Scott! I'm thinking it's always nice there in Oregon. At least, compared to having everything sleeping under cover until Spring. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine! :-) I look forward to a much more FUN Spring/Summer & Fall!!
Love to see the hellbore and pulmonarias featured. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteAnd a Happy New Year to you, too!

Very clever Shady ... and fun. I've been derelict in following my favorite blogs of late as following our return from visiting the Grands in Arizona, Mrs T had major surgery at the Mayo Clinic. Apparently my amazing nursing skills, however, have put her well on the road to recovery. That my theory anyway and I'm sticking to it. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn. I know you love these plants, as do I. I look forward to posting about my new hellebores!
ReplyDeleteLea, Thank you for your recent visit. I've just been to your site today and am checking out the scavenger hunt. :-) YOUR post was quite diverse!
Troutbirder, I'm going to assume Mrs. T continues to gain strength and healing with YOUR excellent care! :-) Best wishes!
Hi Mr. Brown Thumb! I need to visit you!!
