Dark Purple Lilac Live Plant, 6-8 Inch Tall | Syringa Well Rooted, Ready

I planted these in my mother's yard last year. As just an ordinary person planting these for someone who rarely waters, about a third of them survived. The actual plant upon arrival was in good shape. They haven't grown much. But considering the skill level of the gardeners in question, they are a good value for the money. Hopefully they survive to see their true beauty.

I waited so long for this to arrive, I was so excited! I probably should have just gone to Lowes and purchased one from them. At least it would have had some buds. This is honestly, a small stick. I was so bummed, especially, since this was $36. I mean, the weed popping out next to it is growing bigger and faster than the lilac. I think I'll be long gone from this world before it even grows into anything resembling a bush. I really wish I had just gone and picked out my own. This was a joke.

Looked peaked at first, just a stick, but she’s growing leaves and looking great.

Hahahaha… maybe you all know what I didn’t. I was expecting 20 small starts/cuttings. Oh well. 40.00 bucks for a twig seems pretty steep. They got me good! Need to find the small print and read it I guess. Well maybe it will turn out to be a magnificent and prolific flowering lilac…then I can reflect and say “it was worth 40.00 bucks”

This arrived healthy, and seems to be doing great. I can’t wait until I can plant it when it gets larger.

Great plant shape and good root system.

Plant was actually bigger than I anticipated and in great condition

It’s been 1 1/2 years and the plant is a twig. The first year it shedded its leaves. The next year it did the same thing.
