Garden notes
Syringa villosa has mild nauseous flowers. Villous lilac (also known as late lilac) can survive the coldest of winter climates with annual temperatures as low as -50� Fahrenheit. It won't do too well if the winter temperatures are consistently above 5� Fahrenheit. Full sun to partial shade is ideal for this plant. It does well in dry soils.
