Overview

Compact and extremely long flowering, this new hybrid form will liven up patio pots and borders. Flowering on new wood, the fragrant lilac flowers appear in abundance from early summer through to autumn and are an attractive source of nectar for butterflies. The flowers have no pollen and are sterile, so this variety will not self-seed around your garden. Easy to look after, it will appreciate a sunny spot and a hard prune in spring. Though fast-growing it will stay compact, reaching only about 1 metre tall, making this exciting new variety from renowned plantsman Peter Moore ideal for small spaces.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
