Does Spring Bring Lilac 
Time in Your Garden? 
L ILACS should be more largely planted in our gardens, 
^ as they are of easy culture, and thrive well in a great 
variety of soil and climates. Many new and wonderfully 
beautiful hybrids, bring us an infinite variety of shades and 
tints, principally in white, pink, lilac or bluish lavender, and 
purple red. With some varieties, the color effect is partic- 
ularly beautiful, when unopened buds contrast with open flow- 
ers on one and the same panicle. It is then that the lilac 
displays its greatest charms. 
After many years of effort, we are now able to offer a 
very extensive collection of choice 
varieties comprising the very best 
of European introductions. Our 
plants are fully developed speci- 
mens, ready to flower, and are all 
Cottage Garden Grown which in it- 
self is a guarantee of their 
high quality, assuring the 
purchaser of quick and 
satisfactory results.
