Lilac includes about 25 species of fragrant and beautiful garden shrubs and trees of the olive family Oleaceae. This plant is native to Eastern Europe and the temperate regions of Asia is hardy, easy to grow and maintenance-free. 

The common lilac, S. vulgaris, is the most popular and grows in temperate climates around the world.
