Description

Yes, you read that right - this is Bloomerang Showmound lilac, not snowmound. The reason why is because it's the tidiest little reblooming lilac you ever did see, naturally growing as a neat mound just 1.5-3' tall and 2-3' wide. It's also the very first white lilac in the best-selling Bloomerang series, so you know it's special. Dense clusters of pure white flowers appear in late spring, then after a brief rest to put on new growth, reappear and continue from mid-summer through fall. Like the other Bloomerang reblooming lilacs, its small foliage is highly disease resistant. It's an easy care and super appealing plant at retail and in the landscape.

Soil

Prefers neutral to alkaline soils, but is fairly adaptable. Good drainage is imperative.

Pruning

Blooms on old and new wood - prune after spring bloom if desired. Doing so will delay rebloom but also encourages it.

Uses

Hedges; mixed borders; foundation plantings; specimen.

Growing Tips

A light trim after spring bloom neatens the plant's appearance and encourages rebloom, though it does delay it slightly.
