Lilac - Josee
Lilac - Josee Lilac Josee, Syringa 'Josee', is an outstanding variety with a dwarf habit, reblooming flowers, and superb mildew resistance. At just 4-6' tall and wide, 'Josee' is the perfect choice for smaller gardens, or even in large patio containers! The delightfully fragrant, lavender-pink flowers erupt into bloom in late spring. Unlike other lilacs though, the show is not over in easy summer! Syringa 'Josee' will surprise northern gardeners with reliable rebloom all summer and fall and southern gardens may get a flush of rebloom in the fall! Best in a fertile, slightly alkaline soil with good drainage. Mulch to retain soil moisture; lightly prune immediately after flowering to encourage re-bloom and maintain compact habit. Looks stunning in combination planters, mass plantings or borders.

It is a low maintenance shrub, and is excellent as a foundation plant or low hedge. It grows 4-5 feet tall and 5-6 feet wide. Dwarf European Cranberrybush is adaptable to permanently moist to wet soils, dry soils, poor soils, soils of various pH, heat, drought, and pollution. The trunk is stout, upright, and straight when young, becoming slightly ridged, furrowing, and arching with maturity. |
