Bloomerang Dark Purple Lilac
Syringa bloomerang Dark Purple
Syringa 'Penda' (Bloomerang® Dark Purple) is a revolutionary, reblooming lilac prized for its exceptionally long season of fragrant, deep purple flowers and compact, disease-resistant habit. Unlike traditional lilacs that bloom for only two weeks in spring, this award-winning cultivar produces a heavy flush of highly fragrant, deep purple to lavender blooms in mid-to-late spring, then reliably reblooms from mid-summer through fall . The small, single, cross-shaped flowers with curling petals open from red-purple buds, creating a stunning display. With its upright, rounded form, dark green, heart-shaped foliage, and outstanding resistance to powdery mildew, it is a superb choice for small gardens, mixed borders, foundation plantings, and containers.
