DESCRIPTION

Sensation- this variety does not grow as vigorously as other lilacs. It grows up to 3 m in height. It has fancy, glossy, green leaves that are heart-shaped. The flowers are very original - small, two-tone dark purple with a white edge, and gathered in small clusters that are elongated, and loose, up to 30 cm in length. They give off a wonderful scent, which spreads all over the garden.

ADVICES

The shrub is best positioned in a sunny spot, or partial shade. The plant prefers fertile humus soil that is moderately moist. The plant is very tolerant with regard to pH- the soil should be slightly acidic, neutral or slightly alkaline.
Before planting, the root ball should be soaked in water. Fertilize in spring with compost or a multi component mineral fertilizer. After flowering remove dead or damaged flowers to ensure spectacular flowering for the next year. Older plants can be pruned to revitalise. Pruning should be carried out in early spring.
