Historical Background: ‘Josee’ is a dwarf, reblooming lilac known for its compact, rounded habit and extended blooming season. Its ability to bloom multiple times throughout the growing season makes it a valuable addition to gardens, especially in cooler climates where reblooming is more pronounced. The cultivar’s introduction in 1976 by Minier Nursery added a versatile and fragrant option for gardeners seeking prolonged lilac displays.
