domergurl what did you do to the Lilacs to bring them back to life? My bushes are well over 60 years old and the old girls aren't producing as well each year that goes by. Your pics are great.

honestly ... I talk to them. They were droopy and sad when we moved in. I started watering and, I know, I know ... I'm a stinking weirdo, but I talked to them and they bloomed the following spring, on my daughter's birthday no less!

That isn't weird at all they just needed love then. I'm going to give ours a shot of Miracle Grow this weekend while we are doing yard work I think. Need to cut out some dead canes in them too. They were huge when I was growing up we use to use them for playhouses. |

you think so? thanks man! I'll be a mulching mama next Friday ... you'll probably be able to smell me from your computers. I'm getting what's called "living mulch" this year. It's bark mulch mixed with compost.

Your welcome!
Living mulch I hear costs less than traditional mulch.

Maybe once you get a little older and out of high school facing the real costs of things you might hear things differently. |
