What non-lilac bushes smell like lilac in yards?
Bent orchids, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Mayflower rose varieties, fragrant abelia and Pyrenean whitlow grass are examples of bushes that are not lilac relatives even though they emit lilac-like fragrances, odors, scents and smells. Bent orchids (Oncidium incurvum) have yellow-throated fuchsia and white blooms while Pyrenean whitlow grass (Petrocallis pyrenaica) maintains honey- and lilac-scented purple or white blossoms. Charles Rennie Mackintosh (Rosa 'Charles Rennie Mackintosh') and Mayflower (R. 'Mayflower') rose varieties and fragrant abelia (Abelia mosanensis) sport pink flowers.

When is the best time of year to cut back bushes and shrubs Can you trim them more than once a year?
The usual answer is immediately after they have flowered. If you prune them more than once a year they are called a hedge.
What should I do with mold on my lilac bush?
There are three types of mold: powdery mildew, sooty mold and gray mold. Trim trees around the lilac so the lilacs get more sun. Prune the lilacs of the mold and keep the debris in separate bags. After each cut, dip the tool into bleach water with 9 parts water and 1 parts bleach. Do not compost this! Otherwise you may need neem oil or other fungicide in late summer or early winter. If it is sooty mold, you will have to do ant control and use ladybugs or lacewings to eat the scale.
What is the niche of the lilac?
The niche of syringa vulgaris (Lilac flower) is to look pretty in the wild when none other beauty is to be found. It is also to produce pollen so that we can grow other crops and harvest them properly. Without the flowers and such, we would have died out years ago. We cannot live on plants alone, nor can we live on meat alone.

Is an ivory silk tree lilac a good tree around a pool?
Does it shed a lot of leaves? or have some sort of stuff that comes off it? If it does, no because it will get into the pool and filter.
It could be an excess of nitrogen which promotes leaf growth over flowers. Possibly the soil is too rich or lacking in the element phosphorus. Most garden centers keep products to restore such an imbalance so the plants don't then get phosphorus burn.

While it is really hard to find scientific proof that the colour lilac is calming or not, I think it depends on what kind of person you are, and what you like and hate. For example., What if you hate the colour lilac?, then the colour lilac won't calm you down at all.
If I am offered a bouquet of lilacs in a psychic reading what does this mean?
Hello
What this means would only be known by the psychic who gave the reading, so no one else can answer.
As psychics we all have our own 'language' with spirit, so what one thing say a 'tree' means to me it will not to another - same with lilacs.

Why do white lilacs wilt when cut for bouquet?
Lilacs are not long lasting cut flowers, however you can improve their shelf life. Bring in the cut stems and re-cut the stems while immersing the bottom tip in a bowl of soapy water. This help reduce the surface friction and get the stem taking up water again.
They have a tough woody stem. Cut them before they are in full bloom. They will continue to open after cut. Bang up the bottom of the stem with a hammer or mallet. You don't want to destroy it, just fray it. This allows the stem to soak up more water. 1/2 Teaspoon sugar added to the water will help also.
What fertilizer is needed for lilacs?

Will lilac suckers mature into blooming shrubs?
Lilacs can be started by digging suckers early in the spring before leaf out, or after the leaves have matured. They do not root well from cuttings, so I do not suggest that. They are usually very accommodating about sending up sucker growth, so you should have lots of material to select from. Color mixing makes no difference, so go according to your interest and taste.
