why did my lilacs bloom like crazy after this weird trick?
Last spring, my lilacs barely had any flowers. I was bummed. Then, I read somewhere that lilacs love sunlight and hate crowded roots. So, I grabbed my shovel and gently dug around the base, loosening the soil. I even trimmed a few branches to let more light in. It felt risky, but I was desperate for blooms.
A few weeks later, I noticed tiny buds popping up everywhere. By summer, my lilac bush exploded with color and the scent was unreal. Now, every time I walk by, I feel like a gardening genius. Turns out, a little sunlight and some breathing room made all the difference.
