 a century ago it was one of the chief 

 ornaments and with the Lilac and a 

 few old-fashioned Roses, the Syringa 

 or Mock Orange (Philadelphus corona-

 are often very fragrant, and in rich, 

 well-drained soil the plants live for a 

 long time. Some of the species can 

 grow under the shade of overhanging 

 trees, and flower in such situations 

 more freely than almost any ■ other 

 shrub.
