Description

A Lilac that blooms for months instead of weeks? Yep. The Bloomerang Dark Purple Lilac displays loads of fragrant flowers in spring before taking a rest during summer and then blooming again in fall all the way to frost! The second bloom isn’t quite as much as the first, but it’s still quite showy. Its smaller size and compact, mounded form to 4 feet tall and 5 feet wide fits nicely in smaller garden spaces where its taller growing cousins won’t fit. A perfect choice for containers. Its parentage includes four different Lilac species: Syringa patula x macrophylla x meyeri x juliana. This breeding has resulted in excellent mildew resistance and heat tolerance, even here in our Georgia gardens.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing in a compact rounded mound 4 to 5 feet tall and wide, Bloomerang Lilac fits in smaller garden spaces than its taller growing cousins and is also a good fit for pots, planters and other containers. Bloomerang Lilacs are ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, or as a natural hedge in larger landscape and flowering shrub borders and home foundation plantings. A fine addition to fragrance gardens, purple theme gardens, cut flower gardens, butterfly gardens and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 4 feet apart for solid hedges; 8 feet or more apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

Bloomerang Lilacs are easy to grow in a moist but well drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade, depending on your climate. In cooler northern zones plants will grow in full sun. In southern zones 7b-8a we suggest some shade or filtered sun during the hottest part of summer afternoons. Prefers a soil pH close to neutral. Add pelletized lime if your soil is extremely acid. Fertilize once, in early spring, with a light application of an organic plant food or slow-release shrub & tree fertilizer. Prune as necessary after bloom in spring.
