Plants of History—Plants for Tomorrow
When you plant a lilac in your garden you are choosing a shrub that is part of this country’s history. In 1767, for example, Thomas Jefferson recorded his method of planting lilacs in his garden book, and on March 3, 1785, George Washington noted that he had transplanted existing lilacs in his garden. The oldest living lilacs in North America may be those at the Governor Wentworth estate in Portsmouth, N.H., believed to have been planted around 1750.

About Michelle Frizzell-Thompson
Memories via photographs have always been a large part of my life. Having six children, ranging in age from 8 to 26, there have been many memories to capture! Besides taking pictures of my loved ones, I find peace and solitude in capturing the beauty all around us. From the golden colors of the aspen trees in Colorado, to the snow topped mountains, waterfalls, to clouds in all shapes and sizes. I love to capture all the blessings God has surrounded us with. As I've gotten older and wiser my faith continues to grow through each step taken through our beautiful world. I am hoping that my passion will touch someones heart as it does mine.
