Delicious scent, lovely flower

Purple Hyacinth … this is the first one to bloom in my garden this year. Oh I now have several hyacinths in bloom, but this was the first to fully flower. Isn’t it lovely?

The weather was so nice last week that we had our doors and windows open most of each day. The scent of hyacinth would waft into the house every now and then. So beautiful. I love that scent.

The lighting for this photo could be better. It was a rainy overcast afternoon when I took this photo.

    @Pamela I agree hyacinth do smell good and after seeing this photo I’m thinking I need to plant some again. For some reason mine are not growing any more. However, I think Lily of the Valley are my favorite scented flower.
