Syringa Bloomerang Dark Purple
Produces rich purple flowers with delightful scents for months!
Bloomerang® Dark Purple has a profusion of dark-purple, fragrant flowers and a long flowering period. This means you get to enjoy the best part of this hardy shrub for the longest! Most bushes bloom for just a few weeks in spring – but Bloomerang Dark Purple flowers from spring to summer, and again from late summer to the first frosts, taking just a short break during the hottest weeks of the summer.
This shrub is well-branched and medium in size which reaches a height of around 150cm when fully grown. It stands out from other medium-sized Syringa meyerii varieties because of the deep-purple colour of the flowers. Butterflies and pollinators are fans of this shrub too, and its neat compact growth means it is a great option for many gardens including small space gardens. When the flowers are in full bloom, you can cut and place in a vase indoors, producing a stunning and fragrant display indoors as well as outdoors. Flowers May-September. Height and spread: 150cm (59").
Pot up lilac plants and grow them on until large enough to plant out in their final positions. When plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days. If received in the autumn, over-winter Syringa plants in a sheltered position, either in a cold frame, cool greenhouse or porch, ready for planting out in spring. Transplant lilac plants into rich fertile, well drained, neutral or alkaline soil in full sun.
