Planted my first lilac yesterday, taken advice, it's in full sun until around 2pm or thereafter.
It's a syringa josee, dwarf variety.
Pretty mauve pink flowers.
Deciduous.
Planted in a small bed in my postage stamp back garden.

I do love a lilac. I’ve had them in all three of my gardens. They can be a bit unreliable, but as long as you resist pruning them ( they tend to make lots of new non-flowering shoots if you do) they seem to do well. The dwarf ones are very useful.
