We cannot ship any container plants with soil into CA,AZ,OR, and WA. For these states all plants will be taken out of containers, the soil shaken off of the roots, and then roots dipped in water retention gel, then wrapped with moist medium and packaged to insure fresh and live delivery. Sorry for any inconvenience. 

Persian lilac, Syringa x persica, is a graceful arching flowering shrub reaching to 4 to 8 feet tall and half again as wide. The pale violet to lavender flowers of the Persian Lilac shrubs are very fragrant. The 2 to 3 inch long blooms appear in late spring and bloom abundantly into early summer, attracting bees, butterflies and birds.

The rounded and low mature shrub form makes the Persian lilac a perfect plant to be used in a foundation planting or as a border plant. The lilac blooms can be cut and taken indoors for a lovely scent and floral display.

Plant 4 to 5 feet apart for a beautiful spring blooming hedge.
