Syringa x hyacinthiflora Alice Eastwood

Syringa hyacinthiflora ‘Alice Eastwood’ (Early Flowering Lilac)

This deciduous shrub features clusters of soft lavender-pink, fragrant flowers that bloom earlier in spring than many other lilacs. It typically reaches 2-3 meters in height and width, making it ideal for small gardens or as a mixed border plant. ‘Alice Eastwood’ lilac thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. It is well-suited to cooler Australian climates, especially in the southern regions, and benefits from regular pruning after flowering to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.
