Dwarf Korean Lilac (Syringa meyeri 'Palibin') - Description
This is one of the more adaptable and fun Lilacs out there. It's shape and size is tight and compact creating a natural dwarf form of Lilac. It will fit in nicely along a back fence line or for a rambling gorgeous spring and summer hedge. Deliciously fragrant, lavender pink blooms dominate this shrub over the month of May.
