Lilacs are a very popular spring-flowering shrub because they are hardy, easy to grow, and low maintenance. Lilacs produce abundant, colorful flower clusters with a sweet, memorable fragrance. They have deep green leaves and large, oval clusters of compound blooms that come in 7 colors: deep purple, lavender, blue, red, pink, white, or creamy yellow. The fragrant flowers are good for cutting for flower arrangements and attractive to butterflies. Lilac shrubs can grow from 5 to 15 feet tall, depending on the variety so it is important to space multiple lilac shrubs 5 to 15 feet apart, depending on the variety. Also, make sure to plant them in a site where they will get full sun—at least 6 hours. If lilacs don't get enough sun, they will not bloom well.
