Summer residents often wonder which trees and shrubs belong to the universal category.

It is important that the bush is not only beautiful, but also performs at least one useful function.

This is one of the reasons why many people decide to plant lilacs – they are beautiful in the spring and good for the soil.

Let's see what advantages are highlighted by the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

Why is it worth planting lilacs in your garden?

First of all, it is a good honey plant, which will allow you to attract a large number of bees to the site. An experienced gardener knows that bees participate in the pollination of crops.

The second reason is the beauty of the flowers and leaves. The shade depends on the specific variety.

Lilac is known as a drought-resistant plant, but it feels good in marshy soil and can even withstand short-term flooding.

This is a frost-resistant, long-lived bush that tolerates winter well, but requires fertile soil.
