I have another type of Lilac with purple flowers and they are doing really good in my yard. Thought I would try this kind since it is another color. So far so good!

Comments about Josée Lilac:
I was worried about buying a lilac given the extreme heat of summers in South Carolina, but this lilac has performed like a star! It grows in poor sandy soil with no irrigation for 5 weeks in the summer. You don't get better than that. Thanks, Gardener's Supply, for another great product!

Comments about Josée Lilac:
I bought four (yes four, do the math). They all managed to survive the first year but the flowers were not spectacular and the plants didn't grow. The second spring they started out just fine until one day that got somewhat warm (not hot). All the leaves dried off and fell and I was left with 4 plants full of twigs. I don't think they ever recovered from the warm day. They are still in the ground but I suspect they will not come back next spring. HUGE waste of money and time.

Comments about Josée Lilac:
[...] they looked like they were dying when I opened the box...they never recovered and I pulled them out of the ground completely dead less than two weeks later! Total waste of money and they weren't cheap.

Comments about Josée Lilac:
I had read that this lilac was tempermental, so I potted it up and set it in my "nursery" area to be sure it rooted well before placing it in the garden. It seems to be thriving now, but we'll see what happens after I put it in the ground in the fall.

Comments about Josée Lilac:
I had this lilac variety at a previous home and loved it - beautiful, fragrant blooms and reblooms. Takes hard pruning with no fuss - mine got to over 6 feet tall if I didn't prune.

Comments about Josée Lilac:
Plant was in great shape [...]. Good size plant with fresh green leaves. It has doubled in size since I planted it. I like the fact that it will only get 4 1/2 feet tall. Great for small areas especially patios. I can't wait for the fragrant flowers to bloom. Something great to look forward to. Thanks for the great plant.
