Help With Old Lilac
Posted: Fri Apr 16, 2010 5:32 pm
Hello All!
I have recently returned to my childhood home to help care for my ailing Father. I have, in the process, inherited his long neglected gardens.
There is an old Lilac tree (20+ years) in the back yard that still produces some beautiful looking and smelling blooms, but is a bit gangly and unsightly.
Do you have any suggestions that may help bring this tree back to it's former beauty?
