FRENCH LILAC, PRESIDENT GREVY 
FRENCH LILACS 
French Lilacs are much more beautiful than the 
common kind. They grow from 6 to 8 feet tall and may 
be planted in either spring or fall, although fall seems 
preferable. If planted mm the spring, they should be 
set out as early as possible, just as soon as frost is out 
of the ground. Plant them so that the crown is several 
inches below the surface. It is considered best not to 
allow the plants to bloom the first year, for the flowers 
are likely to be small and of poor color. Bushes begin to 
bloom the second year, and the flowers increase In size 
and beauty for several seasons. Lilacs prefer a sunny 
situation.
