Originating in Korea, this rare lilac grows only 5' high and 5' across. One of the "ten favorite uncommon" lilac varieties as determined by John H. Alexander III. You'll delight at the very fragrant single blossoms which appear a deep purple in bud and mature to an unusual icy blue. Blooming later in the spring than S. vulgaris, 'Miss Kim' will give you fragrance when other lilacs are finished. In fall you will enjoy the wine red foliage. Easy to grow!
