Tree Lilacs 
Most kinds of lilacs belong to the shrub family hav¬ 
ing several stalks coming from the ground. Tree lilacs 
are carefully trimmed while young to form one main 
trunk. We have been fortunate in growing some 
mighty fine tree lilacs in two distinct varieties as de¬ 
scribed below: 
Chinese Tree Lilac. A very graceful small tree thickly 
branched to give a massed effect to the foliage and 
flowers. Creamy white flowers with a beautiful lacey 
appearance cover this tree during the middle of July. 
Leaves very unusual, being about one-half inch wide 
and three inches long. A very hardy tree. 
Japanese Tree Lilac. A tree with distinct foliage. 
Leaves thick, pointed, leathery and dark; flowers in 
very large panicles, creamy white and privet like. 
Grows to a height of 15 to 20 feet. A desirable tree 
on account of its distinct foliage and late blooming.

Roses 
Our Roses are strong, two-year plants, grown out¬ 
doors, well rooted, in every way first class, and with 
but few exceptions are on their own roots. They will 
bloom the same season they are set out, and are in 
every respect much better and stronger plants than the 
ones that are so freely advertised and sent out by mail, 
and which are small, tender shoots started in a green¬ 
house, and sent out before they have established growth 
and constitution enough to stand the shock of trans¬ 
planting. In planting, cut branches back to within six 
inches of the main stem. 
We do not sell roses of any kind for fall delivery.
