Climate concern

I was glad to see your response about the tree having a lean, I thought I would have to replant it. My concern is will my tree survive in a climate where we have snow and cold winters. It looks like the leaves are falling off. Is this normal? I'm so excited to see it bloom in the spring while hoping it attracts hummingbirds and butterflies which I'll be able to see while sitting at my desk. Thank you.

Trees.com Plant ExpertThank you for sharing your update, Sharon! You can rest easy knowing Dwarf Korean Lilacs thrive in cold climates and winter snow. The autumn leaf drop you are seeing is standard seasonal dormancy, which allows the root system to rest safely underground until spring. Staking the trunk will easily correct any minor lean while those roots anchor into native soil. Our team is always here if you need any help!

There nice come well packed

There nice come well packed , I just wished they grew taller ,I thought they would be about 10 feet but good looking tree

Trees.com Plant ExpertHi Edmund, thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear that your Dwarf Korean Lilac Tree arrived well packed and looking great. Dwarf Korean Lilac Trees typically mature at 8 to 10 feet tall and 5 to 7 feet wide, making them ideal for smaller yards and landscape beds. Since you purchased the 4 to 5 ft size, your tree still has room to grow toward its full mature height as it settles in. This compact size keeps care manageable while creating a beautiful feature in your garden. Please remember that we are always here if you ever need help or care advice.
