or do you need to buy the tree from a shop. There are tons of seeds on the my lilac bush and would like to line my lot with more, if the seeds can be buried and can grow. I dead head my bushes every year and I always hated to just throw them if they were usable. Thanks for your answers in advance.
Can lilac bushes grow from the seeds that are left after the blooms die?
if all lilac comes from root like a certain un-named person here says then,,that would mean that every one growing in the world would have to be connected together and it would also mean that they would all have the same exact look in each and everyway.
Of course you can grow them from seed,simply plant them before the snow falls and don%26#039;t plant them to deep.Sometimes it helps if you let the seed dry out before you plant.My mother use to keep hers in an open jar to dry out and then planted in early spring.
Reply:in a word yes... what you want to do is bed box them to start them once they root then you can transplant them into larger containers or outside.
start the process with 1 inch square planters and a under the bed box... plant the seeds and water them place the planters on the inside lid of the box put a small amount of water in the lid place box on lid... light with floressant lights on regular cycle and watch them grow.
Reply:Yes but they have to be chilled to make them germinate.
I grew them from seed and got loads.
Reply:Yes - all seeds are pretty hearty
Reply:No lilac bushes come from roots, If u get a new shoot that comes up near the bush dig it up and plant some where Elise given time it will root it self in the spring..

Japanese Lilac Tree?
My man brought home 2 Japanese Lilac trees, one has 3 trunks in the pot, the other has 4 trunks in the pot. Is this normal? I thought it should only have one trunk to be called a tree. Says it will grow to 25 ft. tall.
Japanese Lilac Tree?
Yes, Japanese Lilac grows and spreads 15-25 ft, thus it behaves like a tree.
Enjoy!

Is lilac bad for a cherry head conure?
if you can tell me if a lilac bush branch would be o.k for this bird or if you know how to find out i would be verry greatful thanks
Is lilac bad for a cherry head conure?
Lilacs are not on the poisonous plant list.
Reply:Mite are known to hide in the bark of lilac branches and need to be cured before placing in the cage of your bird.
Also know that ALL conures have a blood clotting disorder that needs to be taken serious with it%26#039;s diet. Feeding foods high in Vitamin K such as Dark green leafy veggies will promote a long living life.
I%26#039;m taken back by some of these answers on this board!! Which means you must be extra careful when taking branches from outside, inside to your bird, especially a conure!!
You can email me for further details!

Do lilac trees and/or rose bushes attract bugs?
We were thinking about planting a couple of lilac trees and a few rose bushes next to our pool area. However, we are wondering whether they may attract unwanted insects (bees, mosquitos, etc.). Any opinions on this?
Do lilac trees and/or rose bushes attract bugs?
All flowering trees, bushes and shrubs will attract bees. They are only there to collect the pollen though. They will not bother you if you leave them alone. Rose bushes do attract aphids (these tiny lime green colored pests) they gather on the bushes and cause damage....you can control them though with lady bugs that feed on aphids. Don%26#039;t let the small stuff %26quot;bug%26quot; you and deter you from enjoying the beautiful fragrance and colors of these gorgeous flowers. Definitely put them around the yard.
Reply:I know our rose bushes attract butterflies and lady bugs, but as far as bees, etc. not really.
Reply:My lilacs have never had a bug problem. Roses however attract many insects, the worst for me is aphids. But they also attract certain types of beetles.

My lilac bushes never bloomed this year??
just curious if anyone else out there found the same thing?! think it is related to global warming? this is the first time that i have noticed that NO lilac bushes bloomed at all ... just curious
My lilac bushes never bloomed this year??
Maybe in your area, but I%26#039;ve noticed that my neighbors%26#039; lilacs have all bloomed. Perhaps, (but I doubt it) your lilacs
didn%26#039;t bloom is because of one of these reasons:
The buds were inadvertently pruned off last year. The new buds form shortly after the flowers die back. See Pruning Lilacs.
The bush is immature. Most varieties need three, and sometimes four years to grow and develop, before they produce their first blooms.
Soil imbalance. This is caused by a pH imbalance, too much or too little of certain chemicals. We recommend a soil test through your local Cooperative Extension Service.
Improper mix of fertilizers applied. Flowering of both plants and vegetables is encouraged with higher Phosphorus. Sometimes, people use high nitrogen, which will help produce green leaves, while hindering blooming.
Insufficient amount of sunlight. Without enough sunlight, the plant often will not bloom. Lilac bushes prefer full fun.
Transplant shock. If you transplanted your Lilac bush since the last blooming period, they sometimes will miss a year, as they need time to recover.

Reply:There was a late frost in the Midwest which retarded the blooms from coming out fully this year. Depending on the variety and how many years you have had them they may be past prime and need to be completely cut back or removed and replaced. Report It

Is lilac and lavender the same thing? and if they're not, whats tyhe difference?
i was reading the bottle of shampoo and it said scent of lilac and lavender
Is lilac and lavender the same thing? and if they%26#039;re not, whats tyhe difference?
They are different species of plants. common Lavender (Lavandula_angustifolia) belong to mint family whilecommon lilac (Syringa vulgaris)belong to olive family. Lavender is pale purple while lilac is dark purple, they both used as fragrance.
Reply:They%26#039;re two different scents from two different plants. To me, lilac has a sweeter scent than lavender; lavender has a slightly %26quot;sharp%26quot; scent to me. Lavender is an herb; lilac is a small (or sometimes BIG) shrub.
Reply:no, two different plants... lilac grows into a large tree/shrub... very distinct scent, strong, smells like spring..
lavender is a strong scent, but more subtle.. it grows on a flowering bush.. smaller plant... well established plants have tons of purple spike flowers..
Reply:Lilac is one kind of flower and Lavender is a different kind of flower. Although both are a purple color they both have different scents.

How to propagate lilac bushes?
Alright my mom has always loved the lilac bush at our house but my dad and her got a divorce and she moved. I usually bring her some of the flower each spring but I was wondering. If I have a healthy lilac bush, how can I propagate another one?
I have never noticed it growing seeds after the flowers so how do they reproduce and start another bush, and whats the best way to plant them to insure they grow.
I live in central Oklahoma, I don%26#039;t know if that helps.
How to propagate lilac bushes?
That%26#039;s really thoughtful of you and maybe you can time the gift for Mother%26#039;s Day (May 13th). Just an idea...
You can grow Lilacs from seed, although this is an exceedingly uncommon approach. At the end of the season, you can harvest the seed from the dead flowers after they have dried, but before they fall out of the seed pods onto the ground. Growing from seed takes time and patience. Most gardeners don%26#039;t want to wait four to five years to see the first lilac blossoms. Nowadays, growing Lilacs from seed is a task left to horticulturalists and garden supply stores.
Another and popular way to grow new bushes is to take small shoots from an existing plant. Select shoots which are one to two feet tall. Look for good root systems. Dig deeply to extract as much of the root as possible. The main root will be attached to the mother plant. Use clippers to cut it from the main bush. Plant the new shoot in the location you have selected. Add compost to the soil before planting. Plant three to five shoots in each area. Water thoroughly. Like all transplants, the survival rate is higher if transplanted in cooler weather. Keep the soil around your transplant moist, but not water-logged.
