(Syringa x 'Declaration') Star-shaped reddish purple flowers appear in large dramatic clusters in early spring. The scent is spicy sweetâthe essence of spring. The deciduous shrub reaches 6 to 8 feet tall and 5 to 6 feet wide; it takes full sun, or light shade in the hottest climates. Most lilacs bloom best in regions with winter chill (Sunset climate zones A1âA3; 1â11, 14â16).
The upright shrub can grow to 25 feet tall in USDA zones 3 though 8, and blooms on new wood. The showy terminal panicles are up to 8 inches long and blush pink or pale purple as they age. Although panicle is one of the latest hydrangeas to bloom, the flower clusters keep on coming into September.he transformation is miraculous as spring itself: from a skeleton of bony stems, your hydrangea (Hydrangea spp.) becomes a lush, rounded shrub with the first days of warm weather. The large leaves are a fresh green, but it's the flowers that capture the imagination and make the most impact.
