My lilac bloomed and then promptly died.... so did my neighbors. They are both the light colored purple flowers. Now my friend up the street has a dark lilac that looks great! I was wondering if there was anything that lilacs are prone to that killed the 2 near my house. It really bummed me out...... I can usually count on that smell wafting in my windows for about 2 weeks!

Instant death like that is usually the caused by borers. That would be my first guess.
