Tiny Dancer Lilac

Syringa vulgaris 'Elsdancer' 

Spectacular and fragrant, with violet-purple buds that open to large four- to five-inch clusters of lavender florets on a nice rounded, compact shrub. More cold hardy and far more heat tolerant than other varieties, with mildew-resistant foliage. Makes a superb foundation planting, hedge, or accent in a wildlife or cutting garden. Deciduous.
