The Soil

About soil condition, the best way to describe it would be "just right". It was neither too dry nor too wet, which made it perfect for The Syringa Sensation. This soil type is not only good for this plant but also for others.

Light requirement

Just like other syringa varieties, ‘Sensation’ needs full sun to flower abundantly. Plant this shrub in a sunny location in your landscape for best results. It will tolerate some light shade, but won’t flower as well in those conditions. ‘Sensation’ is a mid-sized syringa that will reach about 6 feet tall and wide at maturity.

The Temperature

The temperature condition in (name of place) was perfect for mysyringa plant. I had been wanting to try this plant out for a while, and I was not disappointed. The syringa plant flowered beautifully and the fragrance was intoxicating. I would definitely recommend this plant to anyone looking for a beautiful and fragrant addition to their garden.

Humidity Requirement

Ideal humidity condition for this plant is about 60%. The plant does not like to sit in soggy, wet soil, so make sure the pot has adequate drainage. If the leaves start to yellow and fall off, it is likely due to too much water.

The Fertilizer

Discussing fertilizer, this plant prefers a low nitrogen fertilizer in the spring. If you are using a high nitrogen fertilizer, cut back to half the recommended amount. When it comes to the roots, syringa roots benefit from being in areas with good drainage. If the roots are waterlogged, they can rot. It's best to plant your syringa in an area where the soil isn't too dense.

Plant Pruning

Pruning your syringa is important to keep the plant healthy and looking its best. Syringa is a fast-growing plant and can easily become overgrown if not properly maintained. Pruning also helps to encourage new growth and can keep the plant from becoming too leggy.

The Propagation

Propagation by softwood cuttings is the most common method for syringa. It is best to take the cuttings in late spring or early summer when the new growth is beginning to harden off. Cuttings should be taken from the current season's growth and should be about 6-8 inches long. Cut just below a leaf node and remove the lower leaves. Dip the cut end of the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant in a well-drained potting mix. Keep the cuttings moist and in a bright location but out of direct sunlight. They should root within 4-6 weeks.

Growth Speed

Usually, the plant growth rate is about 1 to 2 feet per year. However, under the right conditions, some syringa sensation plants can grow 3 to 4 feet per year. The key to getting the most out of your syringa sensation plant is to give it the right amount of sunlight and water.

Common problems for this kind of plant are powdery mildew and rust. These can be controlled with fungicides. Other problems include aphids, borers, and caterpillars. These can be controlled with insecticides.
