Persian Lilac
The Persian Lilac is a charming, compact lilac shrub with a graceful form and finely textured foliage. In late spring, it produces abundant clusters of fragrant lavender-purple blooms, filling the air with a sweet scent.
This deciduous shrub is more compact than common lilacs, making it ideal for hedges, foundation plantings, and smaller landscapes. It attracts butterflies and pollinators while resisting deer.
