Very beautiful! Are you able to collect seed from it? I always have a hard time with mine. I was able to get small plants in the beginning of spring that came from the roots. My first year successful at it. They usually burn in the sun because I get sidetracked outside and forget to shade them. So far I’ve collected five baby plants. On the road to success lol 😂 @crabby58

I honestly have not tried to get seeds, how would I go about that? I have several plants growing all over the yard, guessing they reseed. @rudester1

Most lilacs are propagated by root cuttings or by green stem cuttings. I have never collected seeds before either... @rudester1
