of all our Lilacs. A very large panicle, very full and compact. 
The color is a bluish mauve.

EDMOND ABOUT. Double. A bush of large, strong heavy foliage. 
Large panicle with large florets. Reverse of petals blue, fading 
to lavender as bloom opens. Very choice. 
Own-root, strong 2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50.

shade among Lilacs. Extra large double florets, with dense 
medium-sized blooms, broadly pyramidal. Another of the 
choice ones. Very rich.

GENERAL PERSHING. Rich, purple-violet, in very long blooms 
in compact clusters held erect. A very showy Lilac.

GRACE ORTHWAITE. A real pink Lilac. Single. Upright spread¬ 
ing bush. Extremely thrifty. Panicles rather open, of medium 
size. Bloom comes well above the foliage. Such a distinct pink, 
it is noticeable from a long distance. We regard it as the best 
of all pink Lilacs except Buffon. 
Own-root, 2 to 3 ft., $1.00; 3 to 4 ft., $1.25. 
GEHEIMRAT SINGLEMARK. Single. A very deep blue; very 
striking and distinct color. If you are looking for an unusual 
Lilac, here it is!

President Loubet. 
GEORGES BELLAIR. Double. Large, compact truss. A very 
pleasant shade of creamy white with distinct markings of 
bright pink on some of the petals which seem to give the 
entire great bloom a distinct tinge of pink. A crackerjack. 
Own-root, strong 2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., select, $3.50. 
HENRI MARTIN. Double. Extremely long graceful panicles. 
Beautiful blue-lavender—a splendid new Lilac. Our show 
plants of Henri Martin are right by the path as we go from 
the office to the trial fields beyond. We pass it many times 
a day when it is in bloom and we always stop and marvel 
at its beauty. 
Own-root, strong 2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50. 
HIPPODYTE MARINGER. Double. A large to very large, light 
pinkish lilac; with long, open trusses. The double florets as 
they open take on a fluffy effect which gives to the great 
panicles a peculiarly lovely appearance. We like it very much. 
Own-root, 2 to 3 ft., $3.00. 
HUGO KOSTER. Single. One of the newer sorts and quite an 
improvement over older varieties of its color. Panicles very 
large, broad at base, and tapering nicely towards the top. 
Color a deep lavender with tracings of pink. Florets large 
and of great substance. 
Own-root, 2 to 3 ft., $1.00; 3 to 4 ft., $1.25. 
JACQUES CALOT. Single. Very large panicles of rosy pink 
flowers with the individual florets very large. One of the 
old varieties but one of the most floriferous of the entire 
collection. The petals are nicely formed, and the bushes are 
simply covered with bloom of a distinct pink. 
Own-root, 2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.00. 
President Poincare. 
JAPONICA. Single. A very fine Lilac where a small tree 
is wanted in the rear corner of a lot or as a small lawn 
tree. Grows into a very clean and trim tree about 20 feet 
high; heavy, dark green, glossy foliage; great plume¬ 
like panicles of creamy white. This is the real tree 
lilac. Own-root, strong 2 to 3 ft., $1.00; 3 to 4 ft., $1.50. 
JAN VAN TOD. This is the largest of all the single whites. 
The panicles are very broad and long with great large indi¬ 
vidual florets. Very fine for cut flower work. 
Own-root, strong 12 to 18 in., $1.00. 
JEAN MACE. Double. Bluish mauve. Very pretty Lilac with 
neatly formed panicle. A tremendous bloomer. Immense full 
panicles. It just seems as though there couldn’t be another 
floret crowded in. Very thrifty bush. 
Own-root, strong 2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50. 
JUDES SIMON. Double. Immense flower with very large florets. 
Deep purplish blue to lavender. Here is another Lilac that 
will just surprise you when you see the great panicles begin 
to open. An extra large Lilac and a good one. 
Own-root, strong 3 to 4 ft., $2.00. 
KATHERINE HAVEMEYER. Double. A splendid new Lilac 
which we have not had long enough to bloom on old bushes, 
but on 3 to 4-ft. bushes, in the show beds, it gave us some 
wonderful deep blue panicles. Looks very choice to us. 
Own-root, strong 18 to 24 in., $1.00.
