How to care for Syringa Josée ('Morjos 060f') (PBR):
When planting incorporate some well-rotted compost or manure and some mycorrhizal fungi (Rootgrow) into the planting hole. In mid-summer remove the faded flower heads carefully using secateurs and avoid damaging the young shoots. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of organic matter or manure around the base of the plant in early spring.
Please note:
This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
