5 Syringa vulgaris Bonsai Tree Seeds - French Lilac Bonsai Seeds

This popular variety is the old fashion French Lilac. It grows 300 to 450 cm height with a spread of 180 to 360 cm. The lilac colored flowers are extremely fragrant and appear in early to mid-May on panicles 10 to 20 cm long. These respond well to pruning and can be grown as a shrub or small tree. These also make for a great flowering bonsai.

Lilacs are among the most popular cultivated shrubs in the temperate world. Aside from roses, there is no flower as beautiful and aromatic. There is nothing better than the sweet scent of a freshly picked bouquet of lilacs in early spring. Lilacs are seldom bothered by pests, easy to grow and are renowned for their showy fragrant flowers produced profusely in spring to early summer. All make great specimen plants. Even when the flowers drop, the foliage continues to make the lilac an attractive shrub/tree for the remainder of the growing season.
