Bring old-world charm to your garden with the Adelaide Dunbar Lilac — a beloved heirloom variety prized for its stunning double blooms and exceptional scent. In late spring, this vigorous shrub erupts in dense, cone-shaped clusters of deep purple-violet flowers that perfume the entire garden and make extraordinary cut flowers for the home.
A hardy and long-lived landscape specimen, Adelaide Dunbar forms an elegant upright habit and is virtually maintenance-free once established. Its heart-shaped, mid-green foliage provides attractive structure throughout the growing season, even after the blooms have faded.
Highlights:
- Exceptionally fragrant double purple-violet flowers
- Blooms mid to late spring
- Attracts butterflies and pollinators
- Drought tolerant once established
- Ideal for borders, hedges, or as a stunning standalone specimen
