Lilac

I have an old lilac tree in my garden that had lovely white blossom on earlier in the year but now that it has all died it is still on the tree looking brown and ugly. Will the dead blossom eventually fall off or will I need to pull it off myself? Any help would be great please!

 

Hello LCH! I had a beautiful blue lilac "hedge" in my garden in Bucks, which I enjoyed in the house as much as I did outside ... they make wonderful bouquets to scent the room which last well. As to you question, the old flowerheads will fall off on their own so let nature take its course!

 

Thanks for the advice, i will hope for a windy day to blow the flowerheads off!
