Fextiva maxima is an old one, but one of my favorites. I hope it will grow
for you. Peonies are one reason I could never consider living in the deep
south again - and lilacs. My grandmother was born in New York state and the
family moved to Florida when she was about eight years old. She never stopped
wishing for lilacs. Many times she described them to me and told me how
fragrant they were. I used to send her gift plants of the Persian lilac that was
supposed to survive there, but she always said "They're just not the same."
