The magic of the Lilac

It is a pleasure to pick a bunch of Lilac and sit down in a garden under a tree of lilac and its branches, giving unique fragrance.

Lilac symbolises youth, resurrection in the spring and renewal of the eternal cycle of life. Giving somebody white lilac means you want to meet this person, the violet lilac is a confession for love.

The country of origin of this magic bush is the sunny Persia, where 400 years ago merchants brought the lilac to Vienna, and from there it spreaded very quickly across the rest of Europe.
