Their past peak now, but about 300 feet long, all grow in and super bushy. I've been to Highland Park, in Rochester, NY at the lilac festival. They have all varieties and some big bushes. http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=289168845/26/2013 6:27:13 PMSawdustyHave you ever seen a larger Lilac? I purchased the old homestead a few years ago, originally settled by my great grandfather, place had been abandoned for about 30 years, so this just kept growing. Best guess is that it's close to 30' diameter.
