Syringa vulgaris 'Belle de Nancy'
Syringa vulgaris 'Belle de Nancy' is a traditional French lilac, notable for its clusters of full, fragrant, double flowers, lavender-pink tinged with silvery mauve, appearing in mid-spring. It forms a large, upright, bushy shrub, branching from the base, suitable both as an informal hedge, at the back of a border, or as a specimen plant. Its dull green deciduous foliage highlights its dense floral panicles, which attract pollinating insects while perfuming the garden. Very hardy and lime-tolerant, it prefers sunny exposures and well-drained soil. 'Belle de Nancy' combines floral elegance, spring fragrance, and a structured silhouette, perfect for traditional or naturalistic gardens.
