Please don't forget to watch for frost now. If it's going to be around freezing, and clear and still, you may have frost. Cover your lilacs until the sun is on them!
We still have a nice assortment of deep purple lilacs available this spring.
Single deep purple-red buds open to pink flowers, compact shrub with small leaves. I love this little guy and his spicy fragrance, and he surrounds my pool. Pre-1920. Grows 4-6' H x 4' W. Syringa meyeri 'Palibin'
