Donald Wyman Lilac
POT SIZE: #5
Mature Height: 8-10 ft

Exposure: Full Sun
Hardiness Zone: 3-7
The Donald Wyman Lilac, also known as Syringa ‘Donald Wyman,’ is a vigorous, late-blooming lilac variety valued for its abundant, fragrant purple flowers. Blooming slightly later than traditional French lilacs, this variety extends the lilac season with its showy, long-lasting floral display. Its upright growth habit and dense foliage make it an excellent choice for hedges, privacy screens, and specimen plantings.
Foliage: Medium to dark green, heart-shaped leaves provide a lush, dense appearance throughout the growing season. The foliage remains healthy and vibrant, contributing to the plant's structural appeal.
Flowers: Large clusters of lightly fragrant, single purple blooms appear in late spring to early summer. The flowers are highly attractive to pollinators such as butterflies and bees.
Growth Habit: Grows 8-10 feet tall and 6-8 feet wide with a strong, upright form. Its dense growth makes it an excellent option for hedging, screening, or as a focal point in the landscape.
Climate: Thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. It is highly cold-hardy, making it suitable for northern climates.
Maintenance: Requires minimal care beyond light pruning after flowering to encourage healthy growth and more abundant blooms in the following season. Regular deadheading can improve its overall appearance.
Landscape Uses: Ideal for hedges, mixed borders, and foundation plantings, Donald Wyman Lilac provides a late-season floral display that extends the beauty of lilacs well into early summer. It is perfect for cut flower arrangements and adds structure and fragrance to any garden setting.
