Lilac Care	HYACINTHIFLORA USDA climate map	.	.	.	These lilacs are cross hybrids of syringa oblata and syringa vulgaris. They flower 7-10 days prior to Syringa vulgaris. They also flower more constant on a yearly basis and have accentuated fragrances. In the fall their leaves take on bronzy, red color. These lilacs can be planted in northern and southern climates from zones 2 to 9. They set buds much easier than vulgaris thus are excellent for California , Northern Florida and the Carolina’s and northern states also.	.
