Lilac 'Bloomerang Dark Purple'

Syringa x Bloomerang Dark Purple ('SMSJBP7') - Bloomerang Dark Purple Lilac (PW) - This lilac is a rebloomer that may continue blooming until frost. The dark purple blooms are very fragrant. Grows 1-2' per year. Since lilac root systems are shallow, they can only reach the base of shallow foundations. If you have a deep foundation, there is little risk of damage. Another condition for foundation damage from lilacs is a heavy soil, such as clay, that swells when wet and shrinks dramatically when dry. Use Bone Meal when you first plant. Do not fertilize the first year. Fertilize once a year with a balanced granular fertilizer. Do not plant any deeper than it is in the pot. Do not add any soil or mulch around the base of the stem. Water deeply once a week for about 20-30 minutes whether is rains or not. Plant at least 3-4 feet from any foundation.
