JAN VAN TOL. Single. An extremely fine new single white. Panicles 
of most beautiful form composed of the largest single florets to be 
found in a single white; very sweet scented. The longer we grow this 
Lilac the more we like it. It must become thoroughly established be' 
fore it begins to show its true qualities. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50

Charles Joly ( Double) 
Purple-red. One of the Very Best 
f of the Double Dark Reds 
EDITH CAVELL. A very showy, pure 
milk-white; buds suffused cream and 
pale sulphur. Panicles extra large, long 
and cone-shaped. This Lilac is as large 
and as fine as Miss Ellen Willmott, but 
is a different type of flower. Ellen Will¬ 
mott is more compact and perfect in 
form while the panicle of Edith Cavell is a trifle more open 
and more lacelike in effect, and it is also earlier. Every fine 
collection should have both. 
2 to 3 ft., $3.00; 3 to 4 ft., $4.00 
GENERAL PERSHING. Double. An intense rich purple-violet, 
with very long panicles held erect and showing well without 
the foliage. An extremely showy Lilac and one of the best 
of the recent introductions from Lemoine. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.00 
GEORGES BELLAIR. Double. Large, compact, well formed 
truss. A beautiful shade of creamy white with distinct mark¬ 
ings of vivid bright pink which makes a most beautiful 
effect. Very distinct and outstanding. This is not the true 
Georges Bellair, which is a purple, but is the name under 
which we first bought it. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $3.00; 4 to 5 ft., $5.00 
GRACE ORTHWAITE. Single. A very fine single bright pink of our 
own origin. Plant very thrifty and covered with medium-sized trusses 
of an intense pink. A real pink. 2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50 
GEHEIMRAT SINGLEMARK. Single. A very deep metallic blue. A 
distinct color in Lilacs. If you are looking for an unusual color in 
Lilacs, here is one. 2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
HENRI MARTIN. Double. Extremely long, graceful panicles. Beauti¬ 
ful 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. A Lilac of most beautiful form. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50; 4 to 5 ft., $5.00 
JEAN MACE. Double. Bluish mauve. Very pretty Lilac. A tremendous 
bloomer. Immense full panicles. It just seems as though there couldn’t 
be another floret crowded in. Very thrifty bush that grows erect and 
shapely, and is very ornamental even after the blooms are gone. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
KATHERINE HAVEMEYER. Double. A splendid new Lilac which we 
like more and more the longer we have it. In 1935 it was one of the 
most outstanding Lilacs of all. Trusses are immense, very full double, 
very rich and of a most beautiful mauve-pink. A very thrifty bush. 
2 to 3 ft., $3.50; 3 to 4 ft., $4.00; 4 to 5 ft., $5.00 
LAMARTINE. Single. Earliest of all to bloom. Tall bush, bearing 
large, open panicles of delicate mauve-pink. Single florets very large. 
2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.70; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
HIPPOLYTE MARINGER. Double. A large to very large, light pinkish 
lavender Lilac; with immense dome-shaped trusses. The double florets 
as they open take on a fluffy effect which gives to the great panicles 
a peculiarly lovely appearance. This is generally the largest of all the 
Lilacs. 2 to 3 ft., $2.50; 3 to 4 ft., $3.50; 4 to 5 ft., $5.00 
HUGO KOSTER. Single. One of the newer sorts and quite an improve¬ 
ment 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. Very beautiful. 
2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.00 
JACQUES CALOT. Single. Here is one of the most pleasing and satis¬ 
factory of the all-pink Lilacs. Always a very heavy bloomer, the bush 
literally covered with fair sized, nicely shaped panicles composed of 
florets of great size. A different shade of pink from Grace Orthwaite. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
MARECHAL LANNES. Double. One of the most sensational and choic¬ 
est of the entire list of French Lilacs. The panicles are large and 
shapely, composed of about the largest florets found among all the 
Lilacs. The effect is a flower of extraordinary beauty. Color reddish 
purple and mauve-lilac. 2 to 3 ft., $3.50; 3 to 4 ft., $5.00 
MARIE LEGRAYE. Single. Pure creamy white. To us this good single 
French Lilac is a special sensation. Panicles very large and rather 
openly built. The individual petals and florets are very large. Blooms 
profusely, often as a two-year-old. Sells very readily at a good price 
as a cut flower. Own root, 2 to 3 ft., $1.25 each 
MARLENENSIS. One of the oldest and most distinct of all French Lilacs. 
A single so profuse in bloom that it sometimes seems during the 
blooming period that the bush is entirely covered with flowers and 
that there is no foliage. But the foliage comes on after the flowers 
are gone. The flower is single and of a beautiful deep old rose shade 
that brings exclamations of surprise and approval from all who see it. 
3 to 4 ft., $3.00; 4 to 5 ft., $5.00
