Syringa 'Katherine Havemeyer'

A small to medium-sized deciduous tree with beautiful flowers and an upright to spreading habit over time as it ages. The Syringa ‘Katherine Havemeyer’ is a variety of the very popular Lilac Tree with bright green, heart-shaped foliage beneath dense clusters of very fragrant, double lavender-purple flowers which fade to pink over time. The lovely blooms will appear around mid-Spring and last until the Summer, its petals fading to provide a bicolour effect on the petals. An exceptional and reliable breed suitable for smaller gardens.

Plant in fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soils and keep in full or partial sun. Grows in most soils types but prefers alkaline to neutral, dry to medium-moisture soils. Tolerates lightly shaded areas but full sun will usually provide the best flower colour.
