got a question for anyone with an answer... I have just dug-up a 'shoot' from a lilac bush. I tried to keep as many 'feeder-roots' on as possible..not many.., what I need to know is...did I just kill it or am I okay..I mean "it" okay??? I have it in a pot with soil and have watered it well. It is in the shade also. What else can I do to help it along. Oh, and I have it tied to a piece of bamboo for stability.
well, protect it from the summer heat....in the fall, just find a nice sunny spot.....I've dug up a bunch of suckers and given them to friends....some do well and some don't....
