Edith Cavell 
Each year we receive a number of letters asking for a list of 4 or 5 of our best 
Lilacs. It is impossible to name a few and say they are the best. In years past we have 
dropped from our list all varieties we considered poor. In the list we offer to our 
customers from season to season, all varieties are good. But it is no doubt difficult 
for one to make up a selection from catalog descriptions and have all kinds distinctly 
different. In our Edith Cavell Collection we offer 5 first-class Lilacs: a red, a white, 
a blue, a light pink, and an old rose. There are other Lilacs as good as these, but 
none more distinct in color or more satisfactory.
