BLOOMERANG Dark Purple
Syringa 'SMSJBP7'
Bloomerang® Dark Purple lilac is a bigger, better, and bolder version of the original in every way. Its flowers are fragrant and showy, boasting larger blooms and a darker purple than the original, particularly in bud. Like the other reblooming lilacs in the Bloomerang® series, Bloomerang® Dark Purple will go through a rest period for several weeks after the spring bloom, then flower again from mid-summer to fall. This Syringa attracts pollinators and is deer and rabbit-resistant. Growers as far south as the Carolinas have reported excellent success in production with this selection.
