They also are producing their new annual growth and next year’s blossom buds “ This growth pattern means there is no time of year that a lilac can be pruned without removing some flower buds,” says G ray Thompson, OSU Extension agent for Clackamas County. To get around this, a lilac should be pruned so that only non-flowering wood is removed. Flower blooms are produced from large buds on the ends of vigorous new growth. On the other hand, lateral growth and spindly growth rarely produce blooms. Both types of growth should be removed in the winter, but can be cut out any time of year. Annual pruning, though not essential, will keep the lilac nnii Nome Finns bush in good vigor,Thorny son said. Renovation of old bushes should be done in the winter. They can be cut back severely while leaving most of the framework so new growth can rebuild the bush. Even so, one year’s bloom will be lost. “ Cutting the lilac flowers to bring indoors also reduces next year’s blooms. But unless the bulk of the blossoms are cut, it is not a serious problem,’’ Thompson noted. As soon as the bloom period is over, however, it is advisable to remove the old blossom heads.
