🌱When do Lilacs Bloom in Spring 🌱

Howdy, fellow plant friends! Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener, and I’m thinking Lilacs.

Ever dream of bringing the sweet scent of lilacs to your Northern Arizona garden? These classic beauties are a symbol of spring, but with our unique climate, timing is key!

Here's the thing: lilacs need a good chill period to set buds and bloom abundantly. In Northern Arizona, that chill can come anywhere from late February to mid-April, depending on your specific location, the weather, and elevation. So, patience, my friends!

While you wait, there are ways to increase your chances of success. Choose a variety known for tolerating warmer climates, like the Bloomerang® series. Plant your lilac in a sunny spot with well-drained soil, and water it deeply but infrequently once established.

For more detailed info on growing lilacs in Northern Arizona, head over to Watters Garden Center or check out our online resources at https://wattersgardencenter.com/.

Remember, gardening is a journey, and with a little patience and the right care, your lilacs will soon become a cherished part of your spring symphony!
