Bloom of the Week - Little Lady Lilacs
Picture
Lilacs are gorgeous! Sometimes though, there isn't room in your yard or landscape to include one of these large bushes. If this is the case, try the new ​Little Lady lilacs. These were created by combining the large, fragrant flowers of the Miss Kim variety with the compact, dwarf habit of the Syringa Mereyi variety (a dwarf Korean lilac). At maximum height, this bush only reaches to a maximum of 4-5 ft in height.

Little Lady lilacs are best planted in full sun and in well-drained soil. They are also very hardy and are a zone 2 perennial. These lilacs work great as a hedge, screen or accent.

Water deeply and regularly in the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. In subsequent years, only increase the frequency of watering before and during the spring bloom period. It's best to prune these only after flowering.
