Directions for Planting and Care

Planting and caring for your Persian Lilac is easy, ensuring a lovely and fragrant addition to your garden:

Planting

Select the Right Location: Choose a spot that gets full sun for the best blooming. Persian Lilacs thrive in sunny locations and benefit from at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Prepare the Soil: This lilac prefers well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. If your soil is heavy or clay-like, improve drainage by amending it with organic compost or sand.

Dig a Proper Hole: Dig a hole that is twice the width of the root ball and the same depth. This gives the roots plenty of space to establish themselves and grow.

Plant the Shrub: Remove the lilac from the pot and place the root ball in the center of the hole, ensuring the top of the root system is level with the ground. Fill in around the root ball with soil and lightly press down to eliminate air pockets.

Water Thoroughly: After planting, give your Persian Lilac a good soak to help settle the soil and provide moisture to the roots, encouraging strong establishment.

Care

Regular Watering: While the Persian Lilac is drought-tolerant once established, regular watering is necessary, especially during dry spells or the first year after planting.

Pruning: Prune the Persian Lilac immediately after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage vigorous growth the following season. This will help ensure healthy foliage and a wealth of blooms in the next cycle.

Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring before new growth begins. This will promote healthy growth and encourage an abundance of flowers.

The Persian Lilac is a beautiful, compact shrub with fragrant flowers and delicate foliage that will brighten up your garden each year. Its easy care requirements and stunning blooms make it a perfect choice for small gardens, borders, or standalone specimens. Enjoy the elegance and fragrance of this delightful lilac by adding it to your garden today.
