I *think* the lilac we have is Miss Kim (I found a tag when digging, but it was in back, the bush is in front). It didn't bloom this year so I'm still not sure; I think the landscapers pruned it late because nobody's lilacs in the development are blooming :~( I'd like to get a clematis to pair with it that won't get too large for it if it indeed is Miss Kim. When we move it away from the gas meter, it will be in the vicinity of a Pink Delight Buddleia, sort of darkish rose pink, so I suppose it should coordinate somehow with that.
