THE rapid strides which have been 
made in the improvement of the 
Lilac by a number of persistent 
specialists is truly wonderful. European 
firms offer several hundred varieties and 
about all of them have been thoroughly 
tried at the Arnold Aboretum at Boston, 
as well as a number of other places in 
this country, and we believe the follow- 
ing list will be found to contain the 
cream of the new varieties. You will 
note in these brief descriptions what a 
wide range of color and form there now
