Finally, a naturally dwarfed old-fashioned Lilac that fits perfectly in small space gardens! Bloomables® New Age White Lilac (Syringa vulgaris ‘G13103’ PP# 32,670) is a durable, compact version of Common White Lilac with tall trusses of fragrant white blooms each spring.

Densely branched, compact New Age White Lilac is a flower factory to start off your growing season with a natural bouquet of blooms. Masses of tiny flowers create sweet-smelling, five-inch high inflorescences that are held on the outside of the free-branching outline.

Planting and Application:

Grow them in the ground, or keep them in oversized outdoor containers for many years. You’ll be thrilled how their medium-green foliage shows improved disease resistance to powdery mildew.

• New Age White Lilac is a well-behaved shrub that delivers a reliably showy spring performance each year. Plant them front and center in a high-profile site to make the most of their charming scented blooms.
• Weave them into your mixed garden beds with an underplanting of spring-flowering bulbs from NatureHills.com. You’ll easily amplify the welcome of the joyous new season each year with thoughtful planning!
• New Age White Lilac stops people in their tracks. Why not use them in commercial settings with a low hedge planted near your front entrance?
• Keep them in containers on wheeled caddies to shift them into position. In bloom, they’ll play the starring role on your patio; and the lush foliage looks great all season.
• Use them as a flowering backdrop in a Wildlife Garden for a nectar-rich jump-start in spring. Plan for blooms all season with the help of these cold-hardy, easy-care shrubs.

Tips for Care:

Lilacs bloom best in full sun with at least six hours of sunlight. They also need well-drained soil; plan to elevate yours in a planting mound if you need to improve drainage.

• While your plants are getting established, apply supplemental water when the top inch of your soil gets dry. Protect your investment with water during dry weather for happy and healthy plants.
• After the blooms are done, snip them to clean up your bush. Correct any crossing or damaged branches at that time; cutting at a 45-degree angle above a leaf bud.
