We had this huge sweet gum tree when we moved into this house and behind it were were 2 lilacs. One lilac was still doing okay because it was still getting enough sun. The othe hardly got any blooms at all. Then, the neighbor's unruly wild roses began taking over the other lilac. Grrr. This last summer, we had the sweet gum removed (yeah!!!!) and hubby tore out most of the wild roses. The neighbor didn't mind because they were choking stuff out on his side and he has some health problems that precluded his taking care of them. So, yesterday I noted lots of little leaf buds on my lilacs and I'm just really excited to think I'll get to bring lots of blooms into the house this year. Sounds like an object lesson, doesn't it?
