This glorious shrub features dense panicles of extraordinarily fragrant, double white flowers in spring contrasting beautifully with the heart-shaped, lush green foliage. This elegant 8-10' white lilac is perfect as a specimen or for a shrub border and as it doesn't tend to sucker like most other lilacs, it can be pruned as a standard. Stunning as a cut flower where its perfume can fill an entire room. S/M
