Extend the magic of lilac season with the robust and elegant 'James MacFarlane'. This exceptional variety concludes the spring symphony with a spectacular display of large, showy panicles in a vibrant shade of hot pink. Emerging from distinct, rosy-purple buds, the star-like blossoms rise high above forest-green foliage, creating a bold and colourful focal point. Unlike traditional lilacs, its slightly coarser texture and upright, non-suckering form give it a modern, architectural feel that keeps your garden looking polished and full long after other spring shrubs have faded.
