Lilac...one of the first radiant smells of Spring

I love this smell...I look forward to this every Spring. Lilacs are worth the trouble...not an easy plant to grow in the beginning....but once established can make it through the hottest of summers.
When trimming a Lilac...cut as if you are cutting blooms to put in water...this is all the trimming you need......removing any dead branches as you go...
