Extremely hardy, 'Miss Canada' has large panicles packed with sweetly scented, tubular, single, brilliant rosy-pink flowers. Opening from reddish buds in early summer, two to three weeks after the common lilacs, the abundant blossoms are produced on new spring growth. The erect branches are clothed in glossy, deep green, lance-shaped leaves that remain attractive in summer and turn a yellow-green in fall. This lilac does not make suckers. It is low maintenance. It attracts butterflies and hummingbirds but is deer resistant.
