My lilac tree was recently run over by a lawn mower it is now a 2 inch stem will it survive if I still water it or is there no hope for this little lilac bush or tree
The roots are intact and it is early in the season so there is reason to believe that the lilac can make a comeback. You can help it along by pouring a watering can of soluble plant food over it every couple of weeks or so. I’ll bet you’ll see a new shoot forming within a month or less.
