Hybrid French Lilacs (Syringa vulgaris) 
Marvelous changes have taken place among the Lilacs—or Syringas, as properly known. From the old- 
fashioned purple and white that grew around cottages and country homes, there have come lovely pinks, 
soft lavenders, rich reds, and royal purples. Lilacs grow readily, need little attention, have no insect enemies 
of consequence, and usually bloom freely. Mildew, which affects the foliage of some varieties, is readily 
controlled by sulphur dust and similar preparations. Our Lilacs are field-grown, well-developed plants 
that will give entire satisfaction.
