Virtual Violet® Lilac

With shiny violet-trimmed new leaves, deep purple stems, raspberry-purple buds, and fragrant violet flowers, Virtual Violet® Lilac is a garden favorite you can count on. Virtual Violet® is mildew-free and the stems of the leaves remain violet well into summer, meaning you can count on clean, gorgeous views throughout the season. The upright, dense habit makes it a great choice for a hedge in smaller spaces as well as a welcome addition to foundation plantings.
