The most fragrant blossoms in the world!

Fragrant lavender flower clusters bloom mid to late spring, filling your yard with sweet smelling fragrances for weeks, if not months.

These plants are so aromatic.

These lilac shrubs make excellent hedges. They mature up to 8-15 feet tall, and give you a flowering alternative to most privacy shrubs. Trim once a year or leave them alone to grow into their natural form.

Purple Lilac bushes reach their full size in a hurry... so you get a mature hedge quickly. Known for its cold hardiness, these lilacs will thrive in the north.

Adaptable to most soil conditions, and pest resistant, too! A fast grower that requires minimal care... just plant it and forget it!

Gives your yard unequivocal fragrance and color for a lifetime!

Smaller than expected

I bought a 3-gallon lilac and it arrived with a couple of broken/brown leaves but I clipped those off the planted it and after 2 weeks, it's thriving. It even has new growth up top! The plant that came was smaller than I expected for a 3-gallon size but it survived transplant so will get bigger in spring I'm sure. I'm a renter in central NC and probably moving to central Florida before spring so I won't see the new growth then but I hope this shrub starts blooming in the first year! I would not be surprised if it did!

Nice Plant

The shipment arrived intact. The plant was alive with a solid root base and is now doing well planted in the ground.

5 stars from me

My over all experience with this company has been really well. Unlike gurneys which was constantly out of stock and took a while to send items to myself. It was frustrating. I look forward to working with fast growing trees for future projects and purchasing.
