In mid spring it features abundant large conical clusters of mauve buds that open to extremely fragrant powder-blue flowers. The lovely two-tone effect is breathtaking! The flowers are excellent for cutting and enjoying indoors. The butterflies love them. The rich green, heart-shape leaves remain attractive through summer. A tall grower 10 to 12 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide, President Grevy can be grown as a large shrub or lower branches can be removed to form a highly attractive small tree. Being a French hybrid, this one does not produce suckers. One of those plants that will always have you looking forward to spring, plant this sensory wonder near a window or patios, decks and other outdoor living spaces where the pretty blooms and heavenly fragrance can be enjoyed from close up. Cold hardy to -40F and deer resistant.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing to 10 to 12 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide, the President Grevy Lilac can be grown as a large shrub or small tree.
