All-Double Lilac 

‘‘ANNIVERSARY. From the Farr Nursery came an anniversary catalog of lilacs. They had been 
thirty-five years in business. My thoughts were a mingling of memories—remembrances of that 
splendid nurseryman and noble citizen, Bertrand H. Farr, and remembrances, too, of our first lilacs 
bought from him a few years after he had started his business. He held to the belief that lilacs mature 
best when grown on their own roots and we took his word for it. The first lilacs to come to Sun 
House were from Farr and during the next few years they seemed not to add one inch to their stature. 
Then they started to shoot. Today they are 8’ to 10’ high, good shapely bushes. Other lilacs came 
through the years, many of them grafted on common stock, and I had my hands full keeping down 
the suckers. What’s more, they haven’t attained that rounded shape which makes the own-root 
specimens a delight to the eyes”... Richardson Wright, Editor, in House er Garden, 1944. Copyright
