is it okay to break flower branches from a lilac bush tree
Lilac bushes bloom only once each year, in spring, but they make new buds after they bloom. The buds become the next yearâs flowers. If you trim a lilac bush too late in the year, then youâll cut off unwanted branches and next yearâs blossoms.ethod. As soon as the lilac bush's flowers are dead, trim each flower stem back to the leaves, removing all trace of the flowers. This step stops the lilac from using its energy to make seeds.
