FRENCH HYBRID 
LILACS 
Almost everybody knows and loves the old- 
fashioned purple Lilac, but only a few know 
how exquisitely lovely the French Hybrids 
are. They are just as easy to grow, and bloom 
when they are even younger. The flowers are 
relatively huge, and are borne in enormous 
clusters, sometimes six or seven clusters com- 
bined in one great truss. Here are eight favor- 
ite varieties which are so exquisitely lovely 
and different that you will want them all in 
the border as specimens.
