Lilac - Korean
N. Meyeri is named after F. Meyer, who introduced this species to the United States from Northern China in the early 20th century. It is the most common cultivar of the species, valued for its even more compact habit (to 4-6”). Syringa translates from the Greek as "pipe", in reference to the hollow stems. The Dwarf Korean Lilac, Syringa meyeri 'palibin', is known as a compact but spreading, small-foliaged Lilac with showy late May lavender-purple flowers that are spread over the entire shrub canopy. It is widely used as a foundation, group planting, informal or formal hedge, or specimen shrub. This deciduous shrub is especially urban tolerant. ... details
