How to Grow
Commonly known as Rouen or Chinese Lilac, this eye-catching hybrid is a cross between Syringa persica and S.vulgaris. The result is a free flowering shrub with much smaller leaves than the Common Lilac, giving a more airy appearance in garden borders.
From late spring, this hardy, deciduous shrub is smothered in panicles of dainty, mauve-purple blooms with a sweet and spicy perfume. Lilac 'Saugeana' has an upright habit with slightly arching stems when in full flower. It is a quick grower, but can be pruned to maintain a more compact habit. A magnificent choice for the back of mixed borders, and makes a lovely cut flower for early summer bouquets. Height: 3m (10’). Spread: 2m (6’,6").
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
