Online Orchards 18 in. – 36 in. Tall Bare-Root Royal Purple Lilac Shrub

The Royal Purple Lilac is easily identifiable by both appearance and fragrance, with its massive pyramidal clusters of lavender-colored blossoms. These flower bunches emit a powerful fragrance unique to this variety of plant that, when in full bloom, brings an additional layer of beauty and depth to a landscape which is often overlooked. The blossoms of this shrub grow closely together in the form of a pyramid, producing a cascading effect as they begin to bloom from the tips of these clusters to the very bottom. Royal Purple Lilacs have a unique beauty and strong aroma, making them an attractive addition to landscapes across the country, but this wonderful variety is also 1 of the most drought tolerant shrubs. In fact the Royal Purple Lilac typically only requires half the watering of another comparable flowering shrub variety. This quality is highly valued among gardeners, homeowners and landscapers today in areas with hot Summers and scarce water. Another unique feature of the Lilacs is their ability to remain compact at less than 5 ft. in height and diameter with pruning or they can grow quite large for a shrub if left unchecked, reaching up to 12 ft. in height and diameter. Whether there is limited space or an entire yard available to grow, these adaptable and beautiful purple shrubs will brighten a landscape year after year.
