Grower Tips:

Bloomerang blooms in spring and then again throughout the summer until frost. The removal of spent flowers encourages the production of new flowers.

Reblooming lilac blooms from spring and again from mid-summer to frost. Small habit fits into any garden. Good for cutting.
-Fragrant.
-Deer resistant.
-Requires well-drained soil and full sun.

Remove spent blooms promptly to encourage reblooming. Prune to shape after blooming. Flower production may decline during extremely hot summers but will resume when temperatures cool in fall. Apply a controlled release fertilizer in the spring. This variety has good powdery mildew resistance.
