I have an old lilac bush in my back yard. I believe it's very old but it's not very big. When I moved into my house about 2 and half years ago, I didn't know what this bush was and the back yard was so overgrown and neglected that I cut everything back. When I realized that this was a lilac I was so excited because I love how beautiful and fragrant they are! I remember huge lilac bushes that were almost the size of trees back in my neighborhood growing up.
Last year, they didn't flower and I assume that it was because it was all new growth. I fertilized it with miracle grow religiously and the foliage really came back on what I thought were dead branches. I'm hoping that this year it flowers.
Is there anything I can do to ensure that I get those big fragrant blooms I've been hoping for?
