The reblooming nature of this lilac sets it apart, providing extended beauty throughout the growing season.
The rebloom of the Bloomerang lilac occurs on new growth. To encourage the best rebloom, ensure the plant grows vigorously in late spring and early summer. Keep it well-watered, mulched, and provide plenty of sunlight (at least six hours a day). Fertilize in early spring after the ground thaws and again after the spring bloom. Pruning, if desired, should be done immediately after the spring bloom to remove developing seed heads and encourage new growth, potentially delaying rebloom slightly. The unique coloring and reblooming habit make it a must-have for lilac enthusiasts.
While pruning isn’t necessary for reblooming, a light trim after the initial bloom can enhance the plant’s appearance and encourage further growth. Avoid pruning in fall, winter, or early spring, as this removes the spring flower buds. The Bloomerang lilac requires a period of cold weather to bloom well, making it suitable for colder climates. It’s exceptionally cold-tolerant and thrives in USDA zone 3. The disease resistance of this lilac ensures a healthy and long-lasting addition to your garden.
