An essential for a spring garden, Lilacs are best known for their highly fragrant flowers from late spring into early summer. Beautiful, decorative garden shrubs, they really make their presence known and 'Beauty of Moscow' is no exception. With its pretty pink bud and bright white flowers, it really is a showstopper!
Appearing in great profusion at the end of branches clothed with heart-shaped green leaves, the tiny, packed clusters of pink buds open to reveal a mass of double, crisp white tubular blooms that smell great and act as a magnet to wildlife.
A real sun lover, lilacs can be grown in just about any soil or can be raised in large containers if kept regularly pruned, which is not difficult as the blooms make superb cut flowers.
For a sensational floral display, year after year, deadhead when two new shoots appear beneath faded blooms and remove any wayward branches to keep a compact shape.
Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready to plant.
