Description
6-7’ tall x 10’ wide. ‘Superba’ Littleleaf Lilac (Syringa microphylla) is a terrific shrub for those who love the fragrance and beauty of lilac blossoms, but want more consistent and prolific blooming. ‘Superba’ bears small, deep-green, slightly fuzzy leaves upon a fairly uniform, attractive framework from mid-spring onwards. Prune lightly to maintain shape in early winter, but bear in mind that lilacs bloom on wood grown the previous season - hard winter pruning will severely diminish the spring show. Plant in average, well-drained soils that are moisture retentive. Syringa microphylla ‘Superba’ is a lover of alkaline soils and is therefore a good choice as a foundation shrub. Full sun is preferred, though partial sun is tolerated with a decrease in bloom.
Shipping
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge.
