BUFFON (Giraldi Hybrid). Single. One of the very earliest of the 
early hybrids. Individual florets large and of fine substance. We think 
Buffon. very choice. Color is a rich delicate clear pink of the finest 
quality. Very effective as the large loose panicles are just opening. 
Best single pink. 2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
CAPITAINE BALTET. Enormous trusses of single flowers of the greatest 
size. A uniform ruddy purple-lilac. A comparatively new variety that 
as yet is not widely distributed, but which by Lilac connoisseurs is 
pronounced one of Lemoine's best singles. It is one of the most pro¬ 
fuse bloomers of all, the bush sometimes being almost hidden by the 
great panicles. This is classed among the twelve or fifteen best of all 
Lilacs. 2 to 3 ft., $5.00; 3 to 4 ft., $6.00 
CHARLES JOLY. Double. Purple-red. One of the best of the double 
dark reds. Bush medium both in size and height, limbs growing very

double flower with florets very full; long narrow pointed petals. 
2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.00 
CHARLES X. Single. One of the older varieties that is still in great 
demand because of its profuse blooming qualities and also because it 
is one of the very best varieties of all for cut flowers. A bluish violet- 
red. 2 to 3 ft., $1.00; 3 to 4 ft., $1.50 
CLAUDE BERNARD (Giraldi Hybrid). One of the tallest growing of 
these new hybrid Lilacs. Very large panicles of lacy light pink flow¬ 
ers. Blooms 6 days ahead of the regular season. 4 to 5 ft., $2.50 
CONDORCET. Semi-double. This is one of the very best of the blue 
Lilacs. The panicles are very broad and compact. The color is a clear 
rich light blue. If one wishes as near a blue as possible he will be 
pleased with Condorcet. 
2 to 3 ft., $2.00; 3 to 4 ft., $2.50; 4 to 5 ft., $3.50 
CONGO. I mmense, single, wine-red. A splendid growing variety that 
produces immense blooms in the greatest profusion. The blossoms 
when they first open and for several days are sensational because of 
their great size and rich color. Then the color changes to a dull 
purple. 2 to 3 ft., $4.00; 3 to 4 ft., $5.00 
DE CAISNE. Single. We think a great deal of this Lilac. It is most 
refined in every way. Nice bush with clean foliage; large panicles 
very nicely formed, and many of them. A very delicate true rich 
blue. Rated by many as the best. For real refinement in color this 
would, without doubt, be rated as the best light blue. 
2 to 3 ft., $4.00; 3 to 4 ft., $5.00 
DE MIRABEL. Single, dark bluish violet. This is by far the darkest 
of all our Lilacs. It is always admired by those who see it in bloom 
in our nursery because it is so distinct in color from all the others. 
It is one of the choicest in the entire line. Panicles rather slender, 
long, compact, and upright. Very noticeable. This is one blue you 
should really have. You will note we often have to omit this fine 
variety from our list as the demand is greater than our supply. A late 
variety. 2 to 3 ft., $4.00; 3 to 4 ft., $5.00 
DE SAUSSURE. Double. Medium sized, compact, slender spike. Buds 
open deep wine-red with touches of white on the points of the netal, 
giving the bloom an interesting effect. As the flower develops it fades 
to a deep rose color. 2 to 3 ft., $1.50; 3 to 4 ft., $2.00 
DESCARTES. Single. A very pretty early bloomer in the Giraldi group. 
Most desirable where a medium tall growing Lilac of this type is 
desired. A fine pinkish lavender coming out in a great loose expand¬ 
ing plume. 3 to 4 in., $2.00; 4 to 5 ft., $3.00 
EDITH CAVELL. A very showy, pure milk-white; buds suffused cream 
and pale sulphur. Panicles extra large, long and cone-shaped. ThL 
Lilac is as large and as fine as Miss Ellen Willmott, but is a different 
type of flower. Ellen Willmott is more compact and perfect in form 
while the panicle of Edith Cavell is a trifle more open and more lace- 
like 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 
EDMOND ABOUT. Double. A bush of large, strong heavy foliage. 
Large panicles with large florets. Reverse of petals blue with intense 
rose-pink shadings opening to a very rich soft blue fading lighter.

GEHEIMRAT SINGLEMARK. Single. A very deep blue-purple. This 
is a very dark lilac. The long upright panicles are made up of many 
small lobes that add to the attractiveness of the flower. The plant is 
tall and upright growing. A good variety. 4 to 5 ft., $3.50
