SYRINGA.    THE  LILACS 
THE  Lilac  among  shrubs  is  like  the  Maple  among  trees,  "the  most  common  and  most  indispensable." 
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  increases; 
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.
