(}4 NATURAL SIZE.) PHIIiADELPHUS. Syriuga, or Mock Orange. Wilder Jasmin, Ger. Seringat, Fr. The Syringa is an invaluable shrub. Of vigorous habit, very hardy, with large handsome foliage, and beautiful white flowers, produced in the greatest profusion at the blosisoming sea- son, it merits a prominent place in all collections of shrubbery. Most of the varieties, except those of dwarf habit, form large sized shrubs, twelve to fifteen feet high. They can of course be kept smaller by pruning. The dwarf sorts do not yield manj^ flowers, but are such pretty, compact plants as to be very useful where small shrubs are desired. All of the varieties flower in June, after the Weigela. By planting the late flowering sorts, the season may be consider- ably extended. Ph. coronarius. Garland Syringa. A well-known shrub, with pure white, highly-scented flowers. One of the first to flower. var. flore pleno. Double-flowering Syringa. A variety with partially double, very fragrant flowers. var. nanus. Dvr are Syringa. Of low habit; makes a dense, compact bush, rarely produces flowers ; useful as a dwarf shrub. var. Zeylieri. Zeyhr's Syringa. A large-flowered, odorless variety, flowers very late. Pll. diantlliflorus flore pleno. A dwarf variety, vrith double cream- colored fragrant flowers ; forms a handsome low shrub ; does not flower much. Ph. foliis aureis. Golden-leaved Syringa. A very pretty plant of me- dium size with golden yellow foliage. It keeps its color the entire season, aud will be found valuable for creating pleasing and striking contrasts with purple-leaved shrubs. 50 cents. (See cut.) Ph. Gordonianus. Gordon's Syringa. A vigorous grower and profuse bloomer; flowers slightly fragrant, and blooms late, and valuable on that account. See cut. Ph. grandiflorus. Large-flowered Syring
