Yes indeed  :D
I used to have a lovely tulip display that would begin blooming just as some of the daffodils started to die out and although I've never actually witnessed it, I think the squirrels have eaten most of the bulbs  >:(   sneaky little bastards  :-[

ummmm LOVE the smell of lilacs.  I planted a very fragrant tree last year, although it's somewhat "ornamental".  I won't be able to cut any and bring them in without making it look lopsided  :-\ so I'll just have to go out everyday a smell it  ;D    During blooming season, I'll keep a garden shears in my car and stop along the side of the road and cut some.  I always feel like I'm doing something dishonest though  :-\

You're just not buying the right kind of indoor plants. Ever tried the silk & plastic ones?
They last practically forever, ...and they're very low maintenance too.  :D

Princess, have you ever had a night blooming Jasmine tree? Those are my absolute favourite smelling blossoms.
I had about 4 of those trees in my bedroom. As they came into bloom, it was like absolute heaven.
Only problem is, the blossoming season doesn't last very long, but when they bloom, it's just pure heaven.
One of the loveliest scents you'll ever smell in your life. There are many air fresheners, bath & skin care products that try to imitate the scent, but I've never found one that got it quite right. There is absolutely nothing that I've ever smelled thus far, that in my mind can surpass the scent of fresh night blooming jasmine blossoms on the tree.
