Known by the Latin Syringa vulgaris tree and, more commonly, the lilac tree or lilac shrub, this hardy plant is easy to care for and produces a reliable show of flowers from late spring. The Syringa Charles Joly garden plant cultivar boasts heart-shaped mid-green foliage with large clusters of double flowers in a striking shade of purple-red.

Lilac trees are a magnet for pollinators and make an ideal butterfly plant as the perfumed nectar-rich blooms provide pollinating insects with valuable energy. Position your lilac tree plant in a sunny spot to yield the best coloured flowers and invite lots of bees and butterflies into the garden.

The compact size of the purple lilac tree makes it ideal for mixed shrub borders, but it also works well grown against south-facing walls and fences. This flowering outdoor plant is relatively fast growing, especially when it is young, and tolerates most soil types.
