Lilac 'Red Pixie' 3 Gallon

Syringa hybrid

Lilac is a classic, deciduous, multi-stemmed shrub or small tree plant family producing wonderfully fragrant panicles of flowers in spring over medium green, ovate to heart shaped foliage. Some species bloom early, others middle, and late spring. 'Red Pixie' is a hybrid related to 'Miss Kim' type lilacs and blooms in late spring to early summer. Reddish pink flowers fade to pale pink. Sweetly fragrant. Outstanding as a specimen plant in the landscape and highly valued in cutting, cottage, pollinator, and fragrance gardens. They make good natural hedges in sunny borders. Plant in well-drained to moist, amended soil. Water well after planting; maintain 1 inch of water once a week the first year. Prune in spring immediately after flowering to control size, and remove stray shoots or damaged limbs anytime. Rejuvenate by removing one third of the oldest stems over 3 years. Feed early spring and mid-summer with a slow release, multipurpose fertilizer.
