Syringa x First Editions® 'Little Lady'™

Syringa x First Editions® ‘Little Lady’™ (Dwarf Lilac)

A charming, compact lilac that brings full-size fragrance without the full-size footprint. Dark pink buds open to soft lilac-pink blooms in spring, filling the garden with classic lilac scent. Its fresh green foliage transitions to a dusty red-purple in fall, offering multi-season interest.

With a naturally restrained habit—about half the size of ‘Miss Kim’—‘Little Lady’™ is ideal for foundation plantings, smaller gardens, mass plantings, or informal hedges that don’t require much height. Bred for cold climates by Jeffries Nursery in Canada, it thrives reliably even in Zone 2.
