Hut 3
‘Baby Kim’ lilac is a tiny little girl with a ton of flower power! She brings all the joy of lilacs into a neat, tidy package so you can enjoy this classic no matter how much – or how little – space you have. Glossy, dark green foliage, fragrant purple blooms that don’t fade to white, and a rounded habit that fits into just about any sunny spot – don’t you feel the urge to take her home?.
Tolerates light shade, but best bloom is in full sun. Needs good air circulation and good drainage. Blooms on old wood.
Fun fact: Like nearly all lilacs, ‘Baby Kim’ lilac actually requires a period of cold weather in order to bloom well.
