LILACS 
PURPLE HEART, E; Plant Patent No. 832 
This very early variety has purplish black buds 
opening to deep purple, single, very large flowers 
attaining between 114 to 114 inches in width, borne 
in large clusters. Preferred my many to Marceau 
which is high praise indeed. East of the Rockies 
this is obtainable thru C. R. Burr & Co., Manches- 
ter, Conn, 
SPLENDOR, CDE; Plant Patent No. 837 
The dark ruddy purple buds open to purplish blue, 
moderately large double flowers in clusters of good 
size. Blooming time is from mid-season to late as 
it flowers over an unusually long period. The flowers 
are definitely not crowded together in the cluster, 
avoiding a trait that completely spoils so many 
otherwise good doubles. The bronzy hue of the 
new growth is another uncommon character. East 
of the Rockies this is obtainable thru C. R. Burr & 
Co., Manchester, Conn. 
SUNSET, CDE; Plant Patent No. 937 
A striking late double that is unusual in several 
respects. Buds are deep mauve carmine; the fully 
double flowers with numerous long “‘petals’’ are 
large, over an inch wide and ruddy purple. Comes 
nearer to a real ‘double red’’ than anything else we 
have ever seen. In our opinion this surpasses Mrs. 
Edward Harding. East of the Rockies this is ob- 
tainable thru C. R. Burr & Co., Manchester, Conn.
