PRES. GREVY. Soft periwinkle blue with orchid pink buds. 
Large double florets in a huge branched racime. Tallest and strong- 
est grower. Should be planted in back of other lilacs of slower 
growth. One of the best double blues. Early.

light Wedgewood blue. Strong and rapid in growth. Early. 
PRES. LOUBET. Double crimson purple. Narrow branched 
clusters borne profusely on a tall slender bush. Very showy and

PRES. POINCAIRE. An impressive violet purple double, diffi- 
cult to describe. The narrow panicles are closely packed with double 
florets, the inner petals of which are edged with light lavender pink 
and twisted, giving the effect of little orchids. Mrs. Harding calls 
this lilac “magnificent.” It is really a tri-color blend. Vigorous bush 
with profuse bloom.. Stock scarce. 
PRES. VIGER. This is a light purple double with deep purple 
buds. Plumes are forked, long and large, open and graceful. Tall, 
erect bush. Deep foliage. Late. Very beautiful and desirable.

broad spike with many lobes. Bush very vigorous, slender and 
floriferous. Considered by Barry “by far the best single white lilac.” 
Good for cutting. Early. 
PRODIGE. Deep purplish red single whose cupped florets mea- 
sure an inch and a half across. Similar to La Place but a shade 
darker. Broad petals are somewhat veined with darker blue-purple 
giving the whole a pansy coloring. Effective landscape variety. Makes 
handsome specimens. 
REAMUR. Single florets are bright violet-petunia, a purplish 
red washed ‘with pink. Outstanding in color and keeps its great 
beauty until completely faded. An important addition to any col- 
lection. 
RUBRA DE MARLEY. A single with narrow pointed plumes 
of rich, reddish purple, darker and redder than Ludwig Spaeth. Often 
sold out because of visitor demand. 
SATURNALE. A riot of bloom of pinkish lilac single florets
