Stark Bro's Store
Proven fragrant double flowers. Good for borders. Will compare with Miss Ellen Willmott lilac.

It was a French variety, white and with a growth habit that works well for my space. I chose Stark Bros., even though there were a couple of less expensive options, because I have always had good luck with their nursery stock and didn't want to leave things to chance.

How fast do they grow?
Cheryl G on Feb 2, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Lilac bushes grow about 1 foot per year when mature. Young lilacs grow much more rapidly, leveling off as they grow older. A fully matured bush of this variety will be about 8-10' tall and wide.
we are in zone 4b and live on ridge which can be very windy would like a white lilac will it survive?
Beverly L on Mar 11, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Madame Lemoine White Lilac is considered very cold-hardy, so that is not an issue. Branches may break if the wind is strong enough, but that would be true with any tall flowering shrub. It is suited for your zone, so it would seem well worth whatever risk might be present. You can always stake it to provide extra support.
Can these lilacs be transplanted? I have several doing exceptionally well and would like to move them.
J H on May 4, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Why not? Get all of the roots you can possibly get and water well and often
after transplanting. Cut back the tops to compensate for roots cut during the transplanting process.
Will the Madame Lemoine lilac attract bees?
Linda C on May 19, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Yes, it does.
How long until it produces blooms?
Linda F on May 21, 2017
BEST ANSWER: It should bloom in the second year, provided it's had adequate food, sunlight and rainfall to develop its root system.

Very healthy bushes
I bought two of these year before last in 2014 because an older one I have is so very fragrant. The bushes are very healthy and growing nicely, however we've not seen a single flower. Hoping for some next year.

Beautiful and hearty lilac
I bought this lilac in honor of someone I had recently lost. He grew the most beautiful lilacs. He lived in England so getting a clipping to start a plant was impossible. This bush bloomed out beautifully this year. This was it's first year so I was not expecting a big show. Boy was I surprised. The blossoms were short but very full in diameter. They smell lovely. I recently move from So. California to Oregon so I am new at this. This lilac made me look like an expert.
