Read detailed description :

Precocious flowers, red in bud, opening to a tender pink colour, with a bewitching perfume. Probably the best of the Syringa x hyacinthiflora variety. Remarkable compact plant, very floriferous, starting 7-10 days before other lilacs. In autumn, leaves may have lovely colours. Hybrid of Syringa oblata var. dilatata and Syringa vulgaris. Any well drained and healthy soil, even chalky.
