BUDDED FRENCH LILACS 
Until you have seen these lovely French lilacs in bloom you 
cannot appreciate their beauty. They are hardy, and unques-

trusses. A strong, rapid grower.

the very best varieties. Panicles long and held erect well out from 
the foliage. Color a brilliant intense rich purple-red, that holds 
up well in the sun and lasts a long time. Bush large and very 
profuse bloomer.

lilac is a sensation. Panicles very karge and rather open. Indi-

two-year-old. Sells readily at good prices as a cut flower.

double and symmetrical. A clear, soft, delicate blue. President 
Grevy is one of the older sorts and one of the most desirable
