Lilac bush, what’s wrong?

Question

My 5-year-old lilac bush, ‘Sensation’, leaves are turning pale and curling. No signs of insects or fungus on this previously robust shrub. I dug in some Ironite around the base.

Answer 1

Did this happen after adding the ironite, or was this an attempt to correct the issue? This can be a pH, issue, but more commonly, there are infections that only affect the flowers.

Can you include photos? This will help me to see the issue. I can, then, give you the best advice about what to do.
