Floral Friday
The sarcacocca bushes that line the north side of our house are in full bloom now. Since we aren't often on the north side of our house this time of year, I smelled it before I saw it; it's potent perfume!

Oh, you are so fortunate to have hummer year round. We get our ruby throats only spring through fall.
You have such flowers around you. Our winter hardy unknown bush finally succumbed to the cold and wind.
I love smelling really fragrant flowers outside; that's a real treat!
Blooms already!
Sweet scented blessings for your heart.
