Thanks for sharing 👍 I have never tried to grow lilac from seeds. I usually take a new plant 🌱 that comes from the roots of the motherplant. I have one lilac that doesn't have those runners. It's a beautiful lilac, could be the one you're showing in the video. I have to check the link you posted and try it out. I would like to have that lilac somewhere else in the garden but it't to old to shift it. Happy New Year 🎆 to all of you 💕
I believe that patience grows in a gardener, we must learn to wait, I will start my seeds next year for many perennials. I don't want to purchase all grown plants because of the cost! 3 years comes fast really!
Oh my, how beautiful. I am a native Ohian transplanted to Texas. It's really not a place where lilacs grow successfully, so I miss them so much. It was 18 degrees here in Texas this morning when I got up and I believe that Ohio was warmer. This was a nice balm to my cold and winter weary (already) soul.
It's 34 degrees here, at the moment. Yeah, lilacs need a period of cold every year. Glad the video helped! I understand, winter is rough for me as well, especially January and February. It's just blah outside, not enough sunlight and the daytime is too short.
Hey this is beautiful! I recently bought a Tinkerbell lilac seedling (about 1 feet tall) and was wondering if you know how long it will take to grow into a reasonable size to start flowering? Like maybe 1 or 2 years?
What is the adage that 1st year creeps, 2nd year leaps, 3rd year? Can't remember but I know trees and bushes are generally the same, no blooms just foliage the 1st year, 2nd year =some flowers 3rd year takes off! So hopefully this is helpful?
