Introducing:

Syringa pubescens subsp. patula
'Colby's Twinkling Little Star'
It is wonderful in color and holds the darker purple throughout the bloom. There is a slight flare recurving of the tips of the petals upwards and the flowers show signs of being bicoloured. The stigma of the flower, or the heart as our son Alessandro (who is 10) refers too is deep purple in color.
