MOON'S   DECIDUOUS  SHRUBS 
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.
