Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comI have had a mature lilac tree in my garden that blossomed white every year. However, this year it’s blossoming purple. Any idea why this may be? One thing is that my neighbour’s lilac tree was always purple. Did this affect my tree? Many thanks.
