Planting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with well-draining, neutral to alkaline soil. Lilacs are intolerant of acidic soils and wet, compacted soils. Plant in full sun (at least 6 hours) for best bloom and health. Dig a hole that's twice the width of the root ball but no deeper. Place the shrub in the center and fill with soil, lightly tamping down to remove air pockets. Spread a 3\" settled layer of mulch three feet around the plant. Water thoroughly to help settle the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Watering:\u003c\/strong\u003e This shrub prefers consistent moisture, especially in its early growing stages. Water deeply and regularly during dry spells, ensuring the soil remains moist but not soggy. Once established, it will be more tolerant of drought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Pruning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pruning is not necessary for rebloom; however, it can create a tidier plant and regrowth for the second bloom of the season. Only prune after the first spring bloom, as pruning in fall or winter can remove the next spring's buds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4. Fertilizing: \u003c\/strong\u003eFertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy growth and prolific blooms. Avoid over-fertilization, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"1 Quart","offer_id":43147425185854,"sku":"31498","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/8835\/2052\/files\/Syringa-Bloomerang-Purpink-3.jpg?v=1785711081","url":"https:\/\/checkout.trees.com\/products\/proven-winners-bloomerang-purpink-lilac-shrub","provider":"Trees.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
