"Boots" expounded:

My lilac bush does not bloom. It is 5 years old and gets a
half a day of sun. Last summer I had one flower 1/2 " high
and nothing this year. What am I doing wrong?

Have you tested soil pH? Lilacs prefer a sweet soil, 6-7, I throw a
cup of lime on the rootzone each year and get plenty of blooms (my
soil is naturally very acid, 5 or lower).
