The sweetly scented blooms of Lilac ' Superba' begin as deep pink buds, before opening into soft pink clusters of tubular flowers, & smothering this lovely bush in late spring colour. Syringa subsp. microphylla ' Superba' is one of the more compact varieties of Lilac, so as well as being perfect for a cottage garden, it can also be grown in a large container or trained as a fragrant, colourful hedge, or grown against a wall. Height & spread: up to 3.5m (11').
