Syringa vulgaris 'President Grevy'

Lilacs are popular spring ornamentals.  They are upright shrubs with purple, fragrant pyramidal blooms. They make a beautiful addition to borders, hedges and container gardens.  They naturally attract bees, butterflies and birds to your garden and work well for borders,  hedges and container gardens. Naturally deer resistant, they grow best with full sun and partial shade and well-drained soil and grow between 5-12 feet tall. Lilacs are great for fresh flower arrangements.

This classic spring blooming French hybrid features exquisitely scented double blue flowers in upright panicles; upright, multi-stemmed habit, very hardy, ideal for screening; full sun and well-drained soil.  President Grevy Lilac features showy panicles of fragrant powder blue flowers rising above the foliage in mid spring, which emerge from distinctive violet flower buds. The flowers are excellent for cutting. It has bluish-green foliage throughout the season. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies to your yard.
