Spring Lilacs 
FOR FRAGRANT

Persian Lilac 
The Lilac like the Rose is more closely wrapped up in the esteem and affection of the American Gardener. 
It offers so much fragrance, color, profusion of bloom and thick rich green foliage. 
Throughout our northern states the Lilac thrives splendidly and quickly grows into a magnificent shrub. 
Dependable and absolutely hardy.
