Planting Instructions:
-
-
- Location:Plant Lilacs in a location with full sun to partial shade. They prefer well-drained soil with good organic content.
- Planting:Dig a hole that’s as deep but twice as wide as the root ball. Place the Lilac in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
- Spacing:Space Lilac shrubs according to their mature size, typically about 5 to 15 feet apart.
- Care:Water newly planted Lilacs regularly until established. Once established, they are relatively low-maintenance. Prune immediately after flowering to remove spent blooms and shape the plant. Mulch around the base of the plant to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.
