Maiden’s “Blush Lilac | Syringa x ‘Maiden’s Blush’
Plant description
Noted for exceptional hardiness, award-winner Maiden’s Blush (Early Flowering Lilac) is an upright-rounded, deciduous shrub with showy panicles packed with wonderfully fragrant, single, pale pink flowers. Opening from reddish-purple flower buds in mid-spring, about 7-10 days earlier than common lilacs, the abundant blossoms make a dramatic display. The erect, open branches are clothed in dark green, heart-shaped leaves that remain attractive in summer and may develop burgundy and bronze tones in fall. Uniform, heavy-blooming, and disease-tolerant.
