Exquisite Ornamental Flowering Tree 
Fragrant FRENCH 
LILAC TREE 
Not a Shrub! Not a Bush! 
Stern’s Brings You the Rare French Lilac Tree—the tree 
of poets—the legendary wishing tree of romance in ex- 
citing beauty. Just imagine an entire tree covered with 
fragrant Lilacs, thousands of Lilacs all on one big tree, an 
unforgettable sight! 
French Lilacs Grafted On Strong Trees 
These are the famous French Hybrids—the most spectac- 
ular of all Lilacs. They will add considerable value to 
your home—plus exquisite beauty for you to enjoy and 
others to rave about. They'll last for generations. Grow- 
ing 8 to 10 ft. tall at maturity; when shipped they are 
well-branched trees 3 to 4 ft. tall. 
Each spike contains hundreds of big, fragrant blossoms. Their 
sweet perfume cannot be described. Cut them for gorgeous bou- 
quets that breathe a message of loveliness. These new French va- 
rieties bring wonderful features usually absent in old-fashioned 
common types. Each individual flower has 8 petals (not the usual 4). 
Exclusive! Only Stern’s Offers These Rare 
Double Flowering Specimens 
Many of these trees have already set flower buds that will burst 
into glorious fragrant Lilacs this spring. Every plant is BLOOM- 
TESTED—having bloomed beautifully in the nursery last May. With 
every succeeding year, you'll enjoy these Lilac Trees more than 
any other tree in your garden. But order now—supply is extremely 
limited.
