Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Small but ambitious, this collection of dwarf lilacs really earn their place in tight spaces. The Syringa meyeri 'Flowerfesta® series are compact and repeat-blooming – producing a big flush of flowers in early summer, followed by another flush in autumn. The airy panicles are larger than other meyeri cultivars and their sweet scent deserves a spot near seating where you can fully enjoy their perfume.

Fine branches are clothed in small, oval leaves lending the whole shrub a very elegant appearance. Despite its dainty habit, this is a robust and hardy plant which makes a fine pot specimen but is equally suited to massed planting in perennial borders. Height and spread: 125cm (49in).

Grow lilac plants in rich fertile, well drained, neutral or alkaline soil in full sun. Young Lilacs will benefit from a sheltered position.

Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season while young plants become established. Prune lilac bushes in winter or spring by removing any damaged, diseased or misplaced stems before lightly shaping the remaining stems. After pruning, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the shrub.
