My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Powdery Mildew on Lilacs

19 years ago

Howdy y'all,

I am a Texas transplant and I couldn't wait to plant lilacs this spring. They won't grow in Texas so I am excited about trying them. However, my lilacs have powdery mildew. I have dealt with it in Texas on crape nyrtles but from what I have read on the internet, I don't need to worry about it on lilacs. Is this true?
