FILLER TLANTS . DECIDUOUS SHRUBS 
LILAC 
This is one of the best-known and loved families 
of shrubs. Erect, narrow habit, sometimes broaden¬ 
ing into heavy clumps when older. Most sorts have 
smooth heart-shaped leaves, 2 to 4 inches. Flowers 
are in dense, erect panicles, very fragrant, and come 
in purple, white, and a great range of intermediate 
shades and tints, in late May and early June. 
Besides the usual natural species and varieties, we 
offer an extended list of the beautiful French Hybrid 
Lilacs comprising the very best varieties in this class.

HYBRID LILACS 
This group contains by far the most beautiful 
Lilacs. The flower panicles are mostly large, dense, 
and very showy. Some are broad and rounding; 
others are narrow and pointed. Individual flowers 
of some varieties are single; others double. Petals 
vary, some round, some narrow, some pointed. 
In color there is a very great range: white, purple, 
and the darkest of reds, as well as many inter¬ 
mediate , variations and combinations. In these 
intermediates the buds will have one color, and the 
open flowers one color on the inside, another on the 
outside, giving delicate gorgeous two- and even three- 
tone effects. Their fragrance is even finer than in 
the Common Lilac.
