Lilacs are shrubs, not trees. That is they grow as a colony of a whole bunch of stems. They bloom better on newer wood. For old lilacs (which yours is definitely not), they can be rejuvenated by cutting out a lot of the old stems. So no I wouldn't cut the new stems out. 2 posts Page 1 of 1 Return to “Lilacs Forum” Jump to
Blank Slate I want to do something different and interesting with the bed. Something long-lasting and vibrant. The front of the house has a few hundred tulips, daffodils, lilies of many varieties and I'll be putting in some annuals later in the year. The backyard has a small pond, roses, lilacs, tulips and a few more lilies. In total, I put in 500 bulbs last year and about 1000 the year before.

My wife gets aggrivated when I put a new bed in only to lift everything out the next year to correct or change things up. Still, the plants always go back in the ground but maybe in new locations.
