The Japanese lilac (Syringa reticulata) is a deciduous tree-form lilac attractive enough to serve as a specimen. It has a moderate growth rate, an upright growing habit, and a rounded shape. It is a mid-size tree belonging to the olive family and grown for the panicles of white flowers that are 6 to 12 inches long, which it bears for about two weeks in early summer. Seeds follow the flowers and last through the winter, giving the plant (along with its graceful form and pretty bark) some visual interest for the winter. These are roughly 3' tall. Will grow in zones 3-7. Like us on Facebook at Eastwoods Organics in Guilford CT. Thanks for looking
