A new and distinct highly ornamental cultivar of Syringa meyeriSyringa microphylla is provided. A Lilac plant having a rounded uniform compact growth habit is described. Highly attractive trusses of fragrant red purple blossoms are formed in late spring that fade to lavender pink. The plant has good winter hardiness and has been found to be relatively free of insect and disease problems during observations to date. The plant is particularly well-suited for growing as an ornamental specimen or as a mass planting in the landscape.
