Hybrid Lilac, Marie Le Graye 
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 
combined in one great truss. Here is a list of favorite varieties 
which are so exquisitely lovely and different that you will 
want them all in the border as specimens.
