Featured Plant

The Miss Kim Manchurian Lilac ( Syringa pubescens subsp. Patula ‘Miss Kim’) is a fragrant shrub suited for full sun and moist, well-drained soils. Once the shrub takes its round, compact structure, it makes the perfect plant for a border around a flower bed. Its beautiful flowers attract butterflies and birds and makes for incredible landscape appeal once flowering takes place. Upon reaching maturity, the Miss Kim Manchurian Lilac can grow up to 9 feet tall and 7 feet wide. It usually blooms in May and can be found in the Clarice Garden Walk here on campus.
