Syringa × hyacinthiflora 'Scentara(R) Double Blue' brings classic lilac fragrance with a modern, heavy-flowering display. In spring, it produces showy clusters packed with fully double, purple-blue blooms that perfume the air and look beautiful in fresh-cut arrangements. The upright, multi-stem habit makes it easy to use as a specimen, in shrub borders, or as part of a flowering screen.

Give your lilac a site with full sun and good drainage. More sun means more flowers, and well-drained soil helps the plant stay healthy year after year. Water regularly while it establishes, then provide consistent moisture during dry periods, especially in spring and early summer when it is setting next season's buds.

At maturity, expect a plant roughly 6-8 feet tall and 6-8 feet wide. Prune only as needed and do it right after flowering so you do not remove next year's bloom buds. Remove spent flower clusters and a few older stems at the base over time to keep the shrub vigorous and blooming well.
