Call your county's extension office; the people there are master gardeners; familiar with your soil, and climate etc; and they can readily and easily tell you what to do! These folks are a fantastic resource! especially for us gardeners! good luck!
I have read all of your answers. None seem to apply to our situation. Two of the bushes were transplanted 15 years ago and have not bloomed since then. One bush does usually lose a lot of its leaves every August and then puts new ones out. We live on a hill that is fairly exposed during the winter.
The houses down the street from us have lilac bushes that bloom. There tends to be an iron deficiency in our soil, could that be a problem? We also have a deer problem in the area. They do browse on our bushes, but not to any large extent.

First year they sleep, second year they creep, third year they leap! Maybe next year. Good luck.
I have a Lilac bush a friend gave me. I planted it 9 years ago and it has never bloomed. Please help. I don't know what to do.
How do I get my Lilac to produce flowers?
My lilac bush is 2 years old. It buds but never blooms. What fertilizer should I be using? It's 3 ft. tall and I have never pruned it. It gets partial sun. What should I do to fix the problem?
3 years ago I planted a lilac bush. For 2 summers I got some growth and leaves, but no flowers.
I have a 13 year old lilac (Miss Kim) that has budded out completely, but isn't blooming. The buds are just withering and dying without blooming.
My husband dug up 4 starts from our neighbor's beautiful lilac bush. The neighbor's bush has never failed to bloom and is just full of them every year!
