Question

when planting Lilac bushes, what is the distance away from a building?

asked Feb 5, 2022 by anonymous

1 Answer

Answer :

They grow big and you would not want that blocking windows or doors for safety. I like to keep them 20 ft or more away. They do draw bees and other bugs and birds like to make nests in them.
