How do you grow Lilac's??

Common Lilac should be planted in full sun. Give it plenty of room because this is a large shrub (8-12%26#039; high, 6-15%26#039; in width). It prefers a neutral, well drained soil. Lilac is a vigorous plant that needs little care. Prune after flowering in mid/late spring . Lilac does benefit from deadheading spent flowers. Once established, prune out 1-2 of the largest/oldest stems each year. This forces new stems and helps prevent lilac borers (borers prefer large diameter, old wood). It does not need fertilizing. Once established, it does not need supplemental watering.

How do you grow Lilac%26#039;s??
Go to any reputable gardening supply store that sells lilac bushes, and simply buy one or two that looks good to you. Simply purchase the plant, take it home and plant it. The new growth that you will observe should be one to sometimes three feet a year. The blooms that you will have this year will be set on last years growth. This process will continue each year. If you decide to trim the plant at sometime in the future, simply to shape it up, you may not get flowers where you trimmed the branch. Just be aware of this.
