In this post, I want to introduce you to the New Age Lavender Syringa that I’ve cultivated in my garden. I planted this shrub in 2020 from a small 3-inch container, so it took a few years for it to truly thrive. Today, it reaches about 4 feet in height and is bursting with fragrant lilacs. Check out the video and my personal growing tips below!
The New Age Lavender Syringa In My Home Garden
What an amazing spring it has been this year with all the blooms taking in the warm temperatures before we hit the last frost date. Many of my perennials are up and taking in the sunshine early. The trees are all blooming and leafing out as we head into the month of May. One of my favorite things about May is Lilacs in bloom. Check out my video below and discover the new age lavender syringa Lilac in my home garden.
