Syringa x “SMNSPH” (BLOOMERANG BALLET) – fragrant blooms in reprise
BLOOMERANG BALLET is a Proven Winners® selection that enriches the ornamental shrub range with a special feature: rich and reliable repeat flowering. Syringa x “SMNSPH” (BLOOMERANG BALLET) flowers in late spring with an abundance of wonderfully fragrant pink flowers. After a short rest period in early summer, a second wave of flowering follows – from late summer into autumn.
The oval, green leaves remain healthy thanks to good disease resistance, and the strong branches ensure a beautiful, well-bearing plant. The lilac is also particularly low-maintenance: plant it in a sunny spot in well-drained soil and enjoy its fragrance and colour for years to come.
This cultivar was selected by Megan Mathey of Spring Meadow Nursery (USA) and will be marketed by Valkplant BV from 2025. Plant breeders’ rights protection has been applied for.
