• Bloom Time: This lilac variety blooms in late spring (usually in May), with a spectacular display of white flowers that last for several weeks.
• Flower Appearance: The flowers are fully double and pure white, forming large, conical panicles up to 20-30 cm (8-12 inches) long. Each individual flower is small, but together they create an abundant, showy display.
• Fragrance: Like other lilacs, Madame Lemoine is highly fragrant, offering the classic sweet lilac scent that is beloved in spring gardens.
• Flower Arrangement: The flowers appear on old wood, so pruning should be done after the flowers fade to avoid cutting off next year’s flower buds.
• Height and Spread: Syringa 'Madame Lemoine' typically grows to about 3 to 4 meters (10 to 12 feet) in height and spreads to around 2 to 3 meters (6 to 10 feet), making it a medium to large shrub or small tree. It is an excellent choice for garden borders or as a standalone specimen.

Lilacs prefer fertile, well-drained soil. While they are adaptable to various soil types, the ideal soil is loamy and rich in organic matter. Good drainage is essential to avoid root problems. For optimal flowering and plant health, Madame Lemoine should be planted in full sun, While it can tolerate partial shade, the flower output and fragrance intensity may be reduced if the plant doesn’t get enough light. To maintain the shape and encourage abundant blooms, prune right after flowering. This allows the plant to develop buds for the next season. Remove spent flower clusters and any dead or damaged wood
