My sensational lilac is beginning to bud. These dark purple grape shaped buds will blossom lilac flowers edged with a white tip. My first lilac bush did not survive due to poor drainage and competing roots from my neighbor's palm tree. This is my 2nd sensational lilac bush and it is now approximately 3 feet tall. With help from my mom and her green thumb, she planted this one about 11/2 feet from the old location. The branches are still sparse, but I look forward to a bountiful of blooms and a sensational scent flowing through my garden for years to come.
