Description

A Reblooming Dwarf, Hardy into the South!Never more than 6 feet high and wide. Very resistant to mildew, it thrives even in the sultry climates of zone 8, and farther north it reliably sets blooms all summer and fall. The most brilliant display is in late spring and early summer,  erupts into pinkish-lavender blossom. The fragrance is heavenly, as hundreds upon thousands of tiny tube-shaped blossoms, grouped into showy 3- to 4-inch clusters, release the scent that means

Full sun and enriched, well-drained soil, keep her adequately watered during dry spells, and this tiny Lilac will repay you with more blossoms than you could have dreamed of! She spreads 5 to 6 feet wide Superbly mildew-resistant, this is one of the few Lilacs that can withstand the warm, moist nights of southern and Midwestern climates.
