Saugeana Chinese Lilac, Syringa x chinensis 'Saugeana', is a floriferous plant with showy, single, deep lilac-red, fragrant flowers in mid-May. This lilac consistently produces an abundance of attractive blooms. Neat, small green disease resistant foliage makes an excellent windbreak or screen. This plant is attractive to bees, butterflies and/or birds and requires average water needs; water regularly; do not overwater. Saugeana Chinese Lilac prefers full sun, good drainage and air circulation. It tolerates light shade, but best bloom is in full sun . It can be used in many situations, including shrub borders, informal hedges and perennial borders. Being very showy and fragrant, it makes a wonderful screen or border specimen and grows 10-12 feet tall and 5-10 feet wide. Must be kept pruned to prevent legginess. Originating in Rouen, France in 1777, it is one of the first hybrid lilacs.
