Syringa patula 'Miss Kim', Dwarf Lilac shade or part sun Deciduous or semi-deciduous depending uponDark purple black buds open in mid late spring to reveal plentiful silvery lavender, sweetly fragrant panicles on this Manchurian lilac cultivar. It's a medium sized shrub: compact, with a rounded form. In fall the small green elliptic leaves turn burgundy. It needs good air circulation so don't place other plants too close for comfort. Prompt removal of faded flowers before seed set will increase bloom in the following year. It's a real sweetheart.
