‘Scentara Pura’ is a fragrant lilac selected for its abundant clusters of pale flowers and especially strong fragrance. Blooming in spring, it can fill the surrounding garden with the classic sweet scent associated with traditional lilacs. The flowers are attractive to pollinators and also make excellent cut flowers. Its upright shrub form works well as a specimen, hedge, or foundation planting, while full sun and good air circulation help encourage the best flowering. Removing spent flower clusters after blooming can help keep the plant looking tidy.
