Cultivation

The suitability of lilac for cutting is determined by the biological vase life of its panicle inflorescences and the possibility of regular bush pruning without compromising its productivity.
In the reference 3 varieties crop Common lilac, where this is mentioned in the description.
The vase life of lilac inflorescences is classified according to the duration of their decorative appearance: low (less than 4 days), medium (4–5 days), and high (6 days or more). For commercial use, cultivars are selected that combine long vase life with optimal shape, size, and density of the inflorescence.
An important condition for cultivating lilac for cut flowers is the choice of plant type, where preference is given to own-root seedlings, which recover more easily after pruning. The cutting technique requires control over the preservation of current-year shoots with formed flower buds to ensure blooming in the following season.
