Lilac should be cut diagonally, then cut in an upright direction splitting the base which therefore increase water flower. Display the lilac flowers away from direct sunlight and in a cool, draft-free position.
Try cutting the stems primarily in the tallest vase, then recutting them a few days later for a shorter vase when you change the water in the vase and even recutting a third time for your shortest vase. This will freshen the stems allowing the lilac to absorb the water from stem to bud.
A little tip; At night, or when you will not be at home to enjoy the cut flowers for longer, store them in the refrigerator between 40 and 50 degrees this can enhance the flower life.
