Hi! I have recently moved into a new place with many Huge lilacs on the property that are absolutely beautiful! There is one however that is not. It seems as though someone has pruned it several times, not really knowing what they were doing. I am now left with a shrub that is missing in the center and a few of the suckers that were around it, are now full sized. Its absolutely horrible looking. I am debating removing it completely, but I'm thinking that would be a huge undertaking, considering the plant is about 8 feet wide. I do have plant knowledge, but I absolutely need an experts opinion on what to do with this one. Do I chalk it up as a loss and take on the task of removing it, or is there hope?! Any advice is much appreciated! Thank you very much for your time!!
