Give your lilac a 5-10-10 or 10-20-20. The first number represents nitrogen which encourages lots of green growth. You want that number to be small. The second number, phosphorous, promotes flowering and the third number is potassium which strengthens stems and encourages root growth (to support all those flowers!) Best wishes with your lilac.
