French Hybrid Lilacs 
The hybrid Lilacs listed below differ from the common Lilacs in that their 
flower clusters are much larger and fragrance more entrancing. The plants 
themselves are more dwarf and bushy, usually reaching a height of 6 to 8 
feet, and do not sucker or sprout from the roots. A much greater range of 
color runs through the varieties of hybrids than may be found in the common 
varieties, and they commence blooming on very young plants. They gare far 
superior to the older sorts in every way.

usual color. Large panicles of true light blue, single flowers.
