Lilacs are great for a home flower garden

Once you have a stand of Lilacs developed it is very easy to cut off a section and grow more trees.

I tried breaking up 1 tablet of Asprin and dipping the end of the cutting as a root hormone and it worked, however I am going to just grab some root hormone at a local nursery, it will be more reliable.

Lilacs are best dried and make great winter gifts bring the scent of spring into your gifts and pillows with dried lilacs.;

Lilacs rock.

Try drying some Lilacs, mid winter it is wonderful to pull out a bag of dried Lilacs and sprinkle it around the house, or make oil out of it to burn. The smell is a natural sedative and also said to increase the Libido.

    My favorite is 'Palibin' dwarf Korean lilac (Syringa meyeri 'Palibin').This cultivar flowers in mauve-pink in mid-May, and has a fresh, spicy fragrance.

    It tops out at about five feet tall, it's a good choice for smaller gardens. This shrub resists powdery mildew and has a neat-looking mounded habit. It is also available as tree form (which means trained as a standard growing on a single stem).
