fertalizing lilacs?

hello
I would love advice about stepping up the blooming of my lilacs. I have only used compost in the past...and they are OK. But I see bushes in abandoned houses that have more blooms than mine! (I realize that these are the common lilacs of yesteryear which may be more sturdy.) I have about five different kinds. They get adequate light - although some of them not a full day, more like about 4-5 hours. Still, even the ones with more sun aren't prolific bloomers. Superphosphate? Any other ideas? I am zone 4. All bushes came from local sources, reputable nurseries.
thanks
Deborah
