Lilac


:''Alternate meaning: Lilac (color)'' About 20 species; see text. Lilacs (''Syringa'') are a genus of plants, in the family Oleaceae, native to Europe and Asia. Lilacs range in size from large shrubs to small trees, 2-10 m tall. The leaves are opposite, deciduous, and in most species simple and heart-shaped, but pinnate in a few species (e.g. ''S. laciniata, S. pinnatifolia''). The flowers are produced in spring, each flower about 1 cm diameter, white, pale pink or more generally purple, with four petals. The flowers grow in large panicles, and in several species have a strong fragrance. Flowering starts after 80-110 growing degree days.

    Cultivation and uses
    Lilacs are popular shrubs in parks and gardens throughout the temperate zone. In addition to the species listed above, several hybrids and numerous cultivars have been developed. The term French lilac is often used to refer to modern double-flowered cultivars. Lilacs flower on old wood, and produce more flowers if unpruned. If pruned, the plant responds by producing fast-growing young vegetative growth with no flowers, in an attempt to restore the removed branches; a pruned lilac often produces few or no flowers for one to five or more years, before the new growth matures sufficiently to start flowering. Unpruned lilacs flower reliably every year. Despite this, a common fallacy holds that lilacs

    I've removed evergreen. The ones in my garden (UK) currently have no leaves. If lilacs keep their leaves in certain climates, please restore with clarification -- Tarquin 19:01 Jan 15, 2003 (UTC) Do we need this many pictures? How about a taxotable? Rissa of the saiya-jin 23:29, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC) :I agree with you, I've removed the purple pic because the colour seems wrong, at least for the purple lilac we see here in England. The other three pics show different parts of the lilac (overall look, leaves and flowers) so should stay.
    :Adrian Pingstone 07:52, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC) ? --Wetman 17:43, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC) - Yes, confirmed ''Ceanothus'', not Lilac - MPF 19:40, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)]] :That's the date I have on that batch of photos. It's also the date on a check I wrote the same day a block away from there. As for what's normal weather around here, nobody really knows any more. It used to be predictable. It's certainly a good fifteen degrees (fahrenheit) warmer than Taos, nearly all the time, and our lilacs in Taos would never bloom that early, but here it happens. However, here in Socorro County many years lilacs don't bloom much at all because they try for April and get nipped by frost. This past spring they didn't. ;Bear 21:20, 2004 Dec 13 (UTC) All right, you guys, I will get closeups of the leaves. ;Bear 21:56, 2004 Dec 14 (UTC) : Now that there are leaves again I got a picture. When I was in town today I went over to the same house and then discovered that I didn't have the camera with me so I removed a piece from the plant on the left and brought it home, and you can see it at http://www.zianet.com/glampers/lilac/PICT1764cas.JPG -- is this a lilac or a ceanothus? BTW they are nowhere near as far along this year as they were a month earlier last year. This year is more normal; last year was freaky warm. ;Bear 07:35, 2005 May 4 (UTC) ::Thanks; must admit I'm a bit baffled now. It isn't a lilac, and it isn't a Ceanothus either. The leaves look most

    Common Lilac


    The Common Lilac (''Syringa vulgaris'') is a deciduous plant from the olive family (Oleaceae), originating from southeastern Europe, where it grows in the wild on rocky hills. It is a very common ornamental plant in gardens and parks, because of the attractive, sweet smell of its flowers. Most garden plants are cultivars with flowers varying in color from white to dark lilac. It is a large shrub or small tree, growing 6-7 m high, but most garden cultivars do not exceed 3-4 m. The smooth bark is gray to gray-brown. The shrubs are multi-stemmed, producing secondary shoots from the base or roots. The light green, oval to cordate leaves are glaucous with a mucronate apex, reaching a length of 10 cm. These simple leaves are arranged oppositely. The leaf margin is entire. They have a pinnate leaf venation. The four-petaled flowers are cup-shaped, usually lilac to mauve in color, but sometimes white (in some cultivars). They are arranged in a large, dense, panicled, terminal inflorescence. The fruit is a dry, smooth brown capsule, about 1 cm long. Category:Oleaceae da:Syren (Syringa vulgaris) nl:Gewone sering
