Lilacs are relatively low maintenance. Powdery mildew, one of the most common lilac problems, is a fungal disease that covers the foliage with a gray-white powder, but it is usually not life threatening. To reduce powdery mildew, spray plants with horticultural oil, following label directions, in summer after they have bloomed.
