Never tried lilac though, maybe it's one of those difficult ones(like hawthorn which didn't work for me).
If it's a hard and woody stem then maybe autumn is better, i did fuchshia hard woody stems about a foot long last oct and all of them rooted and survived the cold winter outside so maybe that'd work with lilac.
Best of luck with them

Thanks a million for the advice Mandolin! It was early summer when I tried the lavender so I think I'll try it again later in the Autumn this year ... fingers crossed!
