Syringa vulgaris 'Alba'
Choose White Lilac if you want a fragrant spring hedge or anchor shrub with clean white bloom; the tradeoff is size, because it needs room and is not the right shrub for tight foundation beds.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The white spring flowers and fragrance make a clear seasonal statement, though it is quieter after bloom. |
| Growth Rate | B | It fills in at a steady pace but is not a fast privacy fix. |
| Maintenance | B- | Plan on pruning after bloom and removing older stems over time to keep it clean and flowering well. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | D | This is too big for most tight walkways, corners, and under-window plantings. |
| Screening Value | B | It can make a useful seasonal screen, but it drops leaves and is not a solid winter barrier. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend White Lilac for open borders and property edges, not squeezed against the house. Give it air, prune right after flowering, and do not shear it like a formal hedge.

Yes, this is bought mainly for that strong classic lilac fragrance.
Yes, if you want an informal flowering hedge and have enough room.
Prune soon after spring bloom so you do not cut off next year's flower buds.

They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
