Features and Where to use
This is a reliable dwarf lilac variety that you might have admired (with your nose and eyes) in your grandma's garden, and it's still a favourite amongst gardeners and landscapers now. In mid to late spring they flower heavily, reddish purple buds opening to lilac pink flowers that are rich in fragrance.
