Upright, densely-branched deciduous shrub with dark green velvety foliage in spring, and with a burgundy tint in fall. Soft pink to lavender flower clusters tip the branches for a lovely spring accent. It flowers about a week after the common lilac, extending the bloom season. Excellent for borders, screens, and hedges. Photo credit: Doreen Wynja.
