Syringa 'Baby Kim'

Lilac

Now, a Lilac for every size garden! Syringa BABY KIM offers the nostalgic lilac scent you may remember from your grandmas garden in a compact habit. Standing 24- 36 inches tall and spreading up to 36 inches wide, Lilac BABY KIM forms a nice mounded habit. The shiny, dark green foliage is a perfect colored background for the large clusters of fragrant, lavender purple blooms (that don’t fade to white) that appear in the spring. Planted in a full sun location that is well-drained will make a perfect home for BABY KIM Lilac. Hardy in zones 3-8, Lilacs make a great border, specimen or mass planting. With the compact size of BABY KIM, it is a perfect sized selection for container gardens as well. BABY KIM blooms off of the previous season’s growth, so we recommend only trimming right after it is done flowering if you feel it is needed. BABY KIM is a deer-resistant shrub whose blooms are excellent for cutting and bringing into your home. BABY KIM Syringa is a Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrub.
