Description

The 'Louis Edmunds' is a dense shrub that reaches 10' in height and 15' wide, bearing long spikes of deep blue flowers in spring. It is an outstanding Wild Lilac for flower color and as a mid-size screen. It is tolerant of heavier soils, and requires some summer watering. In hot inland climates, part shade is necessary. -Monterey Bay Nursery

Water Saving Tip:

Dig-up patches of weeds and undesirable grasses from turf areas.

Use water to grow the turf you want, not the weeds you don't want! Once you have eliminated what you don't want, add sod or over-seed to repair the bare areas.
