French Hybrid Lilacs 
SYRINGA 
These hybrid lilacs are in every way far superior to the old fashioned 
lilacs. They bloom profusely two to three years after transplanting. 
DO NOT WATER OR FERTILIZE LILACS DURING THE SUMMER. 
This is important to remember. But IN THE FALL feed your Lilacs with 
manure. If no manure is available apply a complete fertilizer, or use both 
manure and fertilizer. Also add a handful of lime. 
Lilacs like a well-drained—almost dry—location and bloom much better 
if they are not fed or watered during the summer. In these hybrids, the 
fragrance is still there, with a much wider color range, from white to deep 
purple.
