Jan Van Tol 
There are several very fine single white Lilacs and the above illustration gives a very fair picture of any of 
them. These Lilacs are Jan Van Tol, Mont Blanc, Mme. Florent Stepman, Mme. Felix (the new one), Vestale, 
and perhaps others but the above are the best. They differ slightly one from the other in the general effect of 
the panicle and in the shades of white. Some varieties have a creamy cast to the white, while others are snow- 
white, and some have a slight touch of green. Mme. Felix, our new single white for this year, has very nice for- 
mation of panicle, a white with a slight green tinge, which produces a very rich effect. Jan Wan Tol demands a 
rich soil and age to come to perfection. It is then an absolutely perfect ivory-white.
