Russian Lilac
The Beauty of Moscow Lilac is a Russian cultivar. The double flowers are white, pearled with a lavender-pink blush. It definitely is a heavy bloomer yet exceptionally fine. It has extremely fragrant blooms and dark, glossy, green foliage. Mature growth for this lilac shrub is around 10-12' tall and wide. This one grows along my sidewalk next to the garage.
