DESCRIPTION
This aptly-named Lilac is sure to steal hearts with a profusion of fragrant, pastel purple flowers atop crisp greenery from summer to fall. Furthermore, the bloom bracts last several weeks! These upright shrubs reach between 4 and 5' and make fabulous additions to shrub borders.
Their nostalgic fragrance adds to the "coming of spring." The lilac is an extremely hardy shrub and can be used as an individual specimen plant, informal hedge, shrub border, windbreak, or screen.
One of our favorite things about these plants is that the blossoms mature at different times, creating a spectacular effect in landscapes. So, if you're ready to meet the new love of your life, purchase Sweetheart and experience the long-lasting aromatic clusters of blossoms for yourself!

Growing lilacs
- Hardiness zone: 3 to 7 depending on the species.
- Full sun (6+ hours); less sun reduces flowering and increases powdery mildew.
- Moist, well-drained soil; avoid wet soils with poor drainage.
- Soil pH 7.0 to slightly alkaline. Have your soil tested by the U of M Soil Testing Lab.
- Space new plants based on mature size.
- Planted too close, lilacs will require more pruning and will reduce bloom.
- Proper spacing increases air circulation and reduces powdery mildew.
- Once the lilac is established (2 to 3 years after planting), fertilize every few years with an all-purpose shrub fertilizer.
- Avoid applying lawn fertilizers near or around lilacs as the high nitrogen content will increase leaf production and decrease flower production.
- Water after planting. Make sure the soil drains easily and does not pool.
- Poor drainage can result in stunted growth, fewer flowers and root rot.
