Syringa vulgaris
Ever popular Purple Lilac. Spreads to a 3-4m wide clump spiked with panicles of mauve flowers. Flourishes even on thin lime soils. Originally Persian, now naturalized in North America. Makes impenetrable hedging.
"We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us, and not as a community to which we belong."
