SYRINGA  •  THE  LILACS 
The  Lilac  among  shrubs  is  like  the  maple  among  trees,  *'the  most  common  and  most  indispens- 
able." In  many  dooryards  the  neglected  Lilacs  continue  to  bloom  with  a  fragrance  and  beauty  that 
is  surpassed  by  no  other  shrub.  With  the  revival  of  old-fashioned  gardens,  their  popularity  in- 
creases ;  no  shrubbery  mass  is  complete  without  them.  They  are  hardy,  robust  plants  that  do 
well  and  flower  abundantly  with  little  care.  The  large  collection  we  offer  embraces  tall-  and  low- 
growing  shrubs  ;  kinds  that  will  give  a  succession  of  bloom  for  several  weeks.
