Baby Kim® Lilac (Syringa x)

Our shrubs are currently going dormant. The foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off. During dormancy, plants go inactive to conserve their energy for the next growing season. This happens naturally as seasons change!

Baby Kim® is a compact beauty with glossy, dark green foliage and an abundance of fragrant purple blooms in spring that retain their vibrant color, never fading to white. Its rounded, tidy habit makes it perfect for planting in sunny spots, whether lining a walkway, under windows, as a low hedge, or anywhere you desire both color and fragrance with minimal maintenance.

Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Prune after spring bloom if desired.
