Syringa
Evocative of Spring, we agree with the poet Longfellow, who declared, “I shall not go to town while the lilacs are in bloom.” Whether you prefer the lush opulence of the French hybrids or the dainty charm of the newer species hybrids, there’s a lilac for almost every garden! Many of our lilacs are hardy to USDA Hardiness Zone 3 and overwinter easily in colder climates. The hybrids of S. oblata do well in Southern landscapes as they are more heat tolerant. Lilacs can be planted singly or in groups in the landscape. They need strong sun for eight hours or more daily and a well-drained location in order to thrive. Lilacs also appreciate a neutral pH, so add lime or wood ashes if your soil is acid!
