To all you gardeners out there please could I have your help in identifying this plant. It blooms in May and has a very strong perfume.image

    It's a lovely lilac - identical to the one I accidentally killed in my garden a few years ago :(

    I bought it at Hyde Hall years ago and vaguely recall it being called something like Malaysian or Indonesian Lilac

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Syringa meyeri Palibin, or Korean Lilac.
