Make sure to place this Lilac in full sun or partial shade for the best flowering. It can thrive in any soil type or pH as long as it is well-drained; however this plant is not fully hardy so should be sheltered from cold winds. This plant will benefit from applying mulch when planted in full sun. Prune immediately after flowering, and removing any faded flowers will improve the bloom the following year. Remove any root suckers to maintain its overall shape.
