That's a good point. I did know about the flask and sterilization part. I was not aware of the time frame. Even a year would be fine but upwards of ten before a flower is a bit much.

Okay, I have couple more questions that I hope someone can answer for me. What size pot do phals usually end up in? They're both in 6" pots now and 7" is really the biggest I'm going to have room...

We have had a lot more rain than usual this year. I've hardly had to water the garden yet. I thought it was going to be one of those snowing in June years. Luckily for the lilacs it didn't do that!
