It's not delicate or gorgeous, but rather fresh and elegant, shy yet lovely. Lilac flowers are knotted into a cluster, each releasing its fragrance, refreshing the heart and lungs.

If you're impressed by its fragrance and want to keep a plant too, then let's see what you need to know about the care conditions of lilacs.

Lilacs are famous ornamental flowers that are fragrant. They're widely planted in European and American gardens and occupy an important position in Chinese gardens. In gardens, they can be planted in front of south-facing windows of buildings.

When they bloom, their fragrance fills the room, and their beautiful posture and purple flowers refresh the heart. Maidenhair's rootstock is grafted with lilac to make a bonsai, which has a backbone and flowering branches, complementing each other, and is most resistant to ornamental.

1. Conservation management place to place:

Lilacs like light, moisture, and sunlight. They're born in the jungle of mountain slopes, ravines, streams, valley roadside, and beach waterfront, 300-2400 meters above sea level. They should be placed in a sunny, airy place, but in the summer, a little shade is necessary.

High-temperature sunburn on the potted lilac growth is not conducive to the winter buried in a pot in an outdoor sunny place or moved indoors in front of the windowsill. They're suitable for garden cultivation, and their spring blooming large and showy inflorescence covers the whole plant, and their fragrant ornamental effect is very good. They're one of the famous flowering trees planted in gardens.

2. Watering and fertilization:

Lilacs like moist and well-drained soil. Try to keep the potting soil moist and dry, but avoid over-wetting. In summer, they should be watered once in the morning and once in the evening, and after autumn, they should be watered less to facilitate dormancy overwintering.

They're not strict on soil requirements and tolerant of infertile, fertile, well-drained soil, but avoid planting in low-lying areas, as water will cause disease, leading to the whole plant's death.

In winter, apply well-rotted cake fertilizer as a base fertilizer. In spring, every half-month, cake fertilizer water should be applied to promote flowering.

In summer, they should also be properly fertilized to facilitate the differentiation of flower buds to maintain more flowers the following year. After autumn, less fertilizer water should be applied, as too much fertilizer is detrimental to their development.

3. Pruning:

During the growing season, when the branches are too dense, lilacs should be pruned promptly. This not only does not interfere with the shape of the tree but also facilitates ventilation and light.

After autumn, they enter the dormant period, and appropriate plastic pruning is necessary. Cut off the long branches, overlapping branches, and cross branches, so that the nutrient concentration is higher, leading to more pregnant buds.

4. Potting:

Every 2 to 3 years, turn over the pot, combined with turning the pot, prune the root system, remove some of the old and overgrown roots, pick out the old soil, and replace it with new soil to facilitate the development of the root system, leafy flowers.

5. Pest and disease control:

Lilacs are susceptible to root rot in excessive humidity, causing them to stop growing or, in severe cases, wither to death. The family velvet asphodel is a common insect pest of lilacs that damages the branches and trunks.

Demoiselle moths, thorn moths, aphids, etc., are also pests that can be killed by spraying with 40% Legumin 1500 times.
