(paghat) expounded:


#1 cause of failure to bloom is insufficient sunlight. Ideally they have
morning AND afternoon sun; morning sun alone could well be insufficient.


I guess all the lilacs I've seen around here in partial shade or
planted in a dooryard getting only partial day sun haven't heard this
rule yet. Yes, the prefer sun, but they do find with part-day sun and
filtered shade.
