Kevin, please make more videos! I learned more from this video than I did over 2 years of watching lilac pruning videos.

I loved your video! I heard to prune in April. Blooms on last year's growth too. But I also liked your philosophy of "the little tree". Very informative. You took my pruning fear away. Thank you.

When you are treating a taller lilac, would you just do some pruning cuts to start with and then the following year, take out a bit more. And, to reduce the height, do you do heading cuts or just wait the following year and take the more decadent stems? Thanks….

Previous owners put one in that is right up against the house and is in-between the house and walkway. I don't want to remove it but feel like it's always being cut back a lot to contain it. Didn't get to it last year and it's blooms are beautiful. Any suggestions for that situation?

I had a 60 year old lilac tree. It was growing onto the neighbors fence wooden fence. They were concerned it would ruin the fence so I cut it down. I cut the whole thing down and guess what the next year the damn fence all fell down it rotted out and the wind just took it right out. I am so sad every year some Mexican family would come by and say, can we have flowers? I would always let them take the flowers.
