Kalmia latifolia (Laurel) 
Kolkwitzia amabilis (Beauty-Bush) 
Hybrid Lilacs 
There is no flower which has a wider appeal to the sensibilities of garden 
folk than the lovely French Hybrid Lilacs. They are no harder to grow 
than the common Vulgaris type and the returns are infinitely greater. 
Three charming varieties are illustrated above. 
The beautiful Mountain Laurel pictured in the upper left is 
one of our finest native plants for naturalizing in woodlands and 
partially shaded places. The Beauty-Bush, pictured directly 
above, is an extremely hardy and floriferous subject, one of the 
most spectacular of all early-blooming shrubs. Below is the 
purple glory of Clematis jackmani, one of the finest and most 
graceful vines for covering the end of a porch or veranda.
