Small deciduous shrub displays dark green foliage with burgundy tint in fall. The very fragrant and abundant flowers are deep purple in bud, opening to mauve in spring. It flowers about a week after the common lilac, extending the bloom season. Beautiful accent or specially trained topiary that can grow in warmer regions. Photo credit: Doreen Wynja.
