I received two lilac bushes for Mother's Day. I planted them according to the instructions and they seem to do well. We had an unusually wet spring and early summer, but now the hot weather has set in an the leaves are turning brown, drying up and falling off. Do you think it could be lack of water (they get watered every two to three days) or are they getting too much water? I'm concerned that with winter coming on I might lose them if they are not strong and healthy.
