Product Description
- Exceptionally strong rebloom—comparable to its first flush
- Larger flowers than most reblooming lilacs
- Pale blooms contrast beautifully with deep buds
- Compact, tidy growth habit—ideal for hedges or borders
- Thrives in poor soils and tough garden conditions
While most reblooming lilacs offer a modest second show, Be Right Back™ delivers a second flush that rivals its first—with full, lush panicles and impressively large blooms.
Each flower panicle begins as a dark bud, opening to soft, pale blossoms that create a stunning color contrast throughout the bloom cycle. This compact, well-shaped shrub performs beautifully even in less-than-ideal soil, making it a standout choice for low-maintenance landscapes. Whether planted as a fragrant hedge or a focal point in the garden, Be Right Back™ Lilac is built to impress—twice a year. Zone 4-8
