Most things I know about gardening, I've learned on my own, typically through books or whatever. I don't have anyone near by that I can turn to and say "I've never done this before, and am not sure about what I'm doing..."

Hopefully, y'all can help out not just me, but others with similar questions.

My current burning question:

I have a lilac bush in my front yard. How do I share it with a friend? If the answer is "take a cutting," then the question further becomes "how do I do that?"


There are smaller, similar looking plants growing up around it - is it stoloniferous? Could I just dig up one of those babies (if they are babies), pot it and share it with my friend?

I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.
