    Do you happen to live in North America? If so I’d highly recommend checking out the Xerces society plant lists for recommended species that support local pollinators. The plant lists include timing info for suggestions on what would bloom the rest of the year, because as you mention lilacs are fairly short bloomers (might I recommend my namesake, the humble fireweed, which is a late summer bloomer?)

      Northeastern Europe actually. I’m sure there’s a list I can find with timing info for my country, but Google was kinda useless. I found a bunch of articles telling me I should be planting clover, but that already naturally grows in my lawn lol
