Some people will mow an x cross cut at the end. Some say smashing actually prevents water from going up the stem. Note: always cut hydrangea or lilac stems on an angle. If cut straight across the stem can actually "stick" by suction to the bottom of the vase.sugarcreekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986332733616767905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-33106947828572955612013-04-15T09:57:15.643-07:002013-04-15T09:57:15.643-07:00I'm enjoying those lilacs today as I gaze out ...I'm enjoying those lilacs today as I gaze out my window to a blizzard in Colorado!

Split ends with a hammer or even better, scrape off bark about 3 inches up the stem and cut into stem with sharp knife.<br />Place in lukewarm water, up to their necks and leave in dark,cool place overnight. Arrange the next day in fresh lukewarm water. Even then, Lilacs only last about 4 to 5 days.
