Arrowwood
Miss Kim Korean Lilac

Arrowwood is a cold hardy, reliable, and vigorous shrub that can easily grow on difficult sites. Featuring an upright, rounded, and multi-stemmed form, this shrub produces creamy white flowers against a backdrop of deep green, serrated foliage.

The flowers give way to dark, blue berries that will attract wildlife to your yard. Depending on the plant, Arrowwood's striking fall color can range from yellow, red to reddish-purple.

Many use Arrowwood for naturalization or mass planting projects but, more commonly, you'll see this simple yet elegant shrub as a shrub border or planted on its own.

Miss Kim Korean Lilac is a smaller cultivar of the Korean Lilac that blooms with pale purple flowers in late spring. It produces red-pink berries in mid to late July, and while they are edible, the flavor is not highly significant.

The Miss Kim Korean Lilac makes a good hedge and privacy screen, and will attract birds and butterflies to your yard.
