Is there anything wrong with my lilacs? We do cut off alot of flower clusters to display in the house every spring. I have another lilac of a different variety that doesn't look like this at all--it is full and healthy.

Any suggestions? thanks in advance

you need to remove the grass.. and add a mulch bed of 2 to 3 feet to reduce weed competition..and increase water retention..and to keep the weedwhip and lawn mower away from it ...

patience.. ken

I am mulching them well with rotted manure/hay.

thanks again
